We finally got to venture out offshore. Last night, while you slept, we motor-sailed about 100 nm from Pensacola to Port St. Joe. We’re currently anchored in a quite lovely swamp halfway between Port St. Joe and Apalachicola. We’ll get to Apalach tomorrow and wait for another weather window for our next leg to Clearwater. All systems are working wonderfully well; what a change from a few weeks ago! More later.

Update:
We’re in Apalachicola waiting for cold front to pass thru this weekend. Email getting difficult to get connected.
