Weather gods are not cooperating!



The weather gods are not smiling on Florida!  The offshore forecast has been lousy.  Consistent 5-10 foot seas have kept us from making the 70 mile trek to the Bahamas.  5-10' seas are predicted through late Wednesday, so we luckily extended our reservations at The Harborage Marina in Stuart through Thursday.  The forecast calls for 1-3 foot seas on Thursday, so hopefully we will cross then.  In the meantime, we are enjoying the very quaint town of Stuart, with its many restaurants and shops.  Alexis also scored tickets to a Yo Yo Ma concert this Monday.  So we are spending down our retirement fund while waiting....

 I have been tackling the never ending maintenance list.  I changed the starboard fan belt, which was failing, and finally installed the correct fresh water pump, after ordering one that would not fit. Perfect Fit is set to go, as soon as the weather allows.  In the meantime we wait.  Here are some Stuart pics:





 


Naturally I found a pub with the best cherry pie !

 

Shops abound. 

 


I liked this pub..
