top view shade
Dodger's make big 'junk collecter' dash boards but ya gotta love them for cruising !!
sun shade takes up very little room when rolled up and store easily. Bimini's , with their frames are not as easy. I think that'l give ya what I did Tony
oh ya....the attachment=simple
Back to the 'fun stuff'...My view from the free-bee west palm beach anchorage at 'Riviera Beach'
'revival' swings at anchor there
on to ft Lauderdale. The sail down was a windy reach...fast and fun
the cruising guide said "a very active commercial port"...3 awaite as I arrive
After I made my commitmant to the entrance channel..I found out why the 3 were waiting
"active commercial port"...YEP !!!
not my idea of fun
now I'm getting brave.....thought I'd play 'chicken' with the last one to leave.....NOT !! (ps..that IS the corner of my dodger in the pic...the lil 6hp was cranked !)
Finally made it to the Ft Lauderdale city marina anchorage...nice clean place.Felt good to be tied up after dodging ships.
What a life, Frank! Cold brew and a hot bird, yeah!
Some folks get what they deserve. At a loss for words,
here's a couple quotes:
"Let your life be light, packed with only what you need - a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear, and a little more than enough to drink, for thirst is a dangerous thing." Jerome K. Jerome
"Seamen three! What men be ye?
Gotham's three Wise Men we be.
Whither in your bowl so free?
To rake the moon from out the sea.
The bowl goes trim, the moon doth shine.
And our ballast is old wine." T.L. Peacock
"Here's to the corkscrew - a useful key to unlock the storehouse of wit, the treasury of laughter, the front door of fellowship and the gate of pleasant folly." W.E.P. French
"During one of my treks through Afghanistan, we lost our corkscrew. We were compelled to live on food and water for several days." Cuthbert J. Twillie
