Checked budget, looked at charts for travel time, booked slip at Moss Marina on Estero (Ft. Myers Beach). Will be a full day’s run. But not as long as yesterday. And wind looks favorable.

Made it to Moss Marina just a coupla minutes before 5:00 p.m., promptly scared the bejeezus out of the catamaran in the next slip by insisting on backing in. Finally gave up and went bow in. #HowNotToSail
