Off we go

Finally Sunday Morning Jim, Rae, and I are ready to go great day sun ,warm flat seas, the boat seems a little slow the bottom will have to be done. Arrived Fort Myers about 5pm and headed to the city of fort Myers marina. I was told that it was just pasted the second bridge on the port by the big Texaco sign.
Well it was not after the first two bridges it was after the sixth bridge and guess what is was on the starboard. So much for getting instructions before leaving.  haha. Well going up the river in the dark was bad enough but when i send Jim down to get big Bertha{light} it fell apart. After three weeks of working I never picked it up. O-well have extra lights. will miss the old girl. Into the marina the bow thruster battery goes dead again. Will get new one tomorrow morning well guess not NAPA is 3 miles away and will only delivery new battery's not ones under warranty. Will get one in Steward.
The next morning we head out for More Haven Glades Marina nice marina very friendly and 1.00 per ft.
Next Morning have a great breakfast at the local grill {gulf cart provided with slip} and then off to Clewiston to Roland Martin Marina a short day but we need a short day. again $1.00 a ft. good food and entertainment.
Up Early and across the lake to Steward. arriving 5.00pm another great day.
