Pumpkin Key to Fiesta Key

Sunday March 13, 2011

Further on the ICW to the west, it got shallower and shallower until the depthfinder showed 0.5ft below the keel for quite a long time. And this at high tide!  We decided to take the next possible way out to Hawk Channel. It was just too risky to stay on the Florida Bay side. The next possibility was Indian Channel with its 27ft bridge. After a relaxing couple of hours on the Atlantic side of the keys we anchored behind Fiesta Key, again in a stiff easterly wind. Anchors no problem.

Peaceful evening at Fiesta Key before setting course to the north across Florida Bay.
