Well folks this will be the last posting until we get to Puerto Rico. We are staged at the Elbow, that's by Key Largo and it's a nice deep reef to cross. The Gulf Stream is at 5 to 7 Ft. but is suppose to lay down tonight to 4 to 6. It should take us about 12 to 14 days to get there if we don't lay over at to many Islands. Just to put everyone mind at ease I have plenty of Beer and Karen has plenty wine. We had to lay up for 2 days of weather so I'm a little behind. Karen said we will take plenty of photos to post for our crossing.See Ya'll down the road Mike & Karen

All right we left Marathon at 0900 hrs 3/27/10 and motored down to Rodrique's Key behind Key Largo. Now I don't want ya'll to thank I don't watch the weather because I do. Here we set on anchor for at least 3 days waiting on March to blow out like a lion. It seems that these last 2 fronts here came in a little stronger than I anticipated. As you can see with Karen she just took it in stride and fell asleep.
I'm going to get boared in just about that much time so I'll find something to fix on the boat. About an hour before we arrived here the auto pilot decided to fall apart so last night I put it back together, maybe nothing else will just fall apart for another week or so.See ya'll down the road sometime.

OK everyone I'm back from Brazil and not intending to go back. There was no fun in Brazil working for the people I work for. You are pretty much a prisoner onboard there boats, and the man that's in charge is paranoid that he has pick a bunch of immature people to run the boats so we can't take care of ourselves. Oh well that's over and now that I'm not working for the SOB I'll stop bitching about being in Brazil and only getting to see the road to and from the airport.
We are leaving for P.R. Sat. or Sun. so there will be more photos and post right on down the road.
