Florida!

Melbourne, FL

Just a quick update. We'll put together something more interesting when we have time. We're busy bumbling down the waterway (ICW) here in FL. It was a big achievement to arrive in St. Augustine after a 24hr sail from Hilton Head Island a few days back. Since then, we've kept up the pace and are now in Melbourne, FL.

Today, we saw about six manatees, many dolphins, dozen's of different sea birds (ospreys, pelicans, herons, etc.). It was quite a wildlife experience. We'll share more about it soon. We're resting up here in Melbourne for a few days and visiting with Beth's family.

Tracker Woes

After sending the Inreach tracker back for testing, they told me they couldn't find anything wrong. After getting it sent back to me and reinstalling, it promptly quit tracking while we were on the ocean headed to St. Augustine. The only thing that seems to work properly is that if you have gone to the link and you clicked on the little triangle thingy that represents the boat, then you'll be presented with a dialog that has a "locate" on it. If you click on that link, you will get the device to tell you where we really are - even if it has forgotten to track us. This is a lame situation, but nothing I can do about it right now. Here's the link if you want to try it.
