INDIANTOWN MARINA
What another great day of motoring in Florida. Continued up the Caloosahatchee River to the Caloosahatchee Canal - through 3 locks. You would not believe the alligators!! We saw dozens of them. No swimming on this trip!! The weather was perfect - sunny and in the 70's with a slight breeze. We settled in to the marina around 6:00 pm - I must say that Scott manoeuvered us in to a tight spot, aft in first. Very impressive. We will be heading for Stuart tomorrow. The crossing on Lake Okechobee was uneventful. The locals advised there was a slight chop - well, the slight chop was about 2 inches. I guess a heavy chop would be 4 inches!! So no complaints at all. It is another clear night with a full moon. Take care all. Hope Chico is doing well and not missing us too much. SCL&T (Esperanza Crew).
