ON OUR WAY

Had great weather to start our trip. We did our usual waiting game of bridge openings, and made it passed the very shoaled Haulover inlet. We purposely left on a Monday as going through Miami/Ft. Lauderdale on a weekend is like bumper boats! We did did a short stop up the Dania Canal to have our rudder seal checked by the technician that had replaced it last year. The seal had been leaking a small bit, we just wanted it checked by the expert. He said it was fine, and nothing a little 4200 couldn't fix. The issue with this stop was that the marina we pulled in to is crammed with huge yachts with very little maneuvering space. John did a stellar job of avoiding any mishaps! 
Last night we stayed at Lighthouse Marina near the Hillsboro inlet. Nice marina...would stay here again.
