USA - Florida, MAIMI, No Name Harbor, We’re back in the US of A…..

We arrived in Miami, checked-in with Customs and Immigration, and received our additional Lithium Batteries at Crandon Marina.

It was interesting to see the In Water Kite Boarding Lesson. 

We’ve done that, not my Cup of Tea….

In Black Point, our Hydraulic Motor for our Dinghy Davit stopped working. We have been able to put the dinghy down, but we cannot lift it. So at night we tie the dinghy in the water to Meshugga with Rope and Chain. 


Safety First, I took an Uber to Lifeline Liferaft Servicing in North Miami to have our Liferaft serviced, for our trip to Guatemala onwards.


We’re back in No Name Harbor Key Biscayne and love the walks on the well maintained paths

Happy Birthday Nicholas


Busy No Name Harbor

My phone rang, and it was Leslie of Now and Zen calling. Once I answered, she said, “Look outside, I’m waving at you”.
How wonderful, we’ve not see Leslie and Ralph this or last year, as both have had medical issues keeping them in their home port Jacksonville, Florida.
We popped over for Sundowners and to say Hi.

Leslie and me

Bon Voyage to Now and Zen, they left early next morning, are on their way to Bahamas for a visit for the rest of the season.

So nice to have fresh Flowers aboard again

Wild life on the shore, Blue Crane and Green Iguana

My e-bike and cart ashore for trips to Winn Dixie and collecting packages

Grey Sunday, with awful weather, High winds and Rain Squalls

And we’re all having a lazy day

  1. Bummer about the dinghy lift motor! That's a pain. Glad you're double-chaining it on the boat....I fear losing a dinghy! And so nice that you got to visit with Ralph & Leslie. And a big YUCK to that weed!
