Southport Anchorage, Stuart, FL.



We arrived in Stuart yesterday afternoon around 2 PM. The day started out long and ended long even though we didn't have as many miles to cover as the previous days. Florida in there infinite wisdom decided to do bridge repairs in the height of the season for boaters returning North. Needless to say many hold ups occurred at the bridges.

The good thing is we did arrive to receive our mail and a package containing the new doors you see in the picture. Aren't they beautiful. We think so. They are an anniversary present to ourselves. Larry has spent the day installing them while I did some much needed accounting. After I update this website we plan to walk to the Post Office and West Marine. It is very hot here today so we will wait to take our second shower when we return. I'm sure we will need one! I definitely know Summer would be much too hot here and for two people who do not like air conditioning, North is where we need to be. We enjoy having the best of both worlds.

Nice doors.

The modified companionway makes them possible on your 356. Our boards are slanted-upright doors would not work on the "old" 356".

Two years ago I started from Stuart in crewing on a trawler that the owner and I brought North. The Davenports (Ladyhawke) are on their way north and are in Georgia now. They are taking their trawler to Georgian Bay with us this summer and then will continue on to complete the great loop down the Mississippi, etc.
