Boat Name: | Pelican Sea Wind | |
Boat Description: | Kruger Sea Wind with Balogh sail and Boss plus Hobie Mirage pedal drive. | |
Fort Desoto | 3/5/2005 | Very much looking forward to roomier and more comfortable Sea Wind. Pedals don't add much speed over paddle, but option of using leg muscles will be a huge benefit on the long stretches. Making no plans except to follow the path of least resistance, although I do intend to take the wilderness waterway to Flamingo. |
CP1, 67 Miles Grande Tours | 3/5/2005 9:48:00 PM | Outstanding run down the outside. Wind and Seas were right where I wanted them. Hopefully, more of same on Sunday. |
CP2, 174 Miles Chokoloskee | 3/7/2005 9:35:00 PM | Awesome day, Kruger is too comfortable. I slept in it on a beach last night. I didn't awaken til 6:30. Feeling great. Took it easy and stopped to take pictures along the way. Plus ate lunch at a WaterTribe restaurant on Marco River.
Strong head winds for last two hours. |
CP3, 273 Miles Flamingo | 3/10/2005 10:25:00 PM | Left cp2 at 12:03 AM. I had a devil of a time getting out in the dark and rain. Came outside and slept 2 hours on Pavilion Key after crashing into the sand bar. |
Finish, 303 Miles Key Largo | 3/11/2005 5:42:00 PM | |
