  • Somebody's watching me
  • Little island at the mouth of Alligator Creek
  • Alligator Creek. Despite the name I have only seen one alligator in the creek in the last four years.
  • Port Charlotte on the left and Punta Gorda on the right

Had a nice daysail across Charlotte Harbor to the Myakka River. It is finally warm enough on the water after the Polar Vortex earlier this month to break out the shorts. Sky was a beautiful blue with winds in the 10 to 13 knot range making for a fast sail.
