The coastal cruising continued with the crew of Denny, Scott, Charlie, Vicki, Jori, and Ken. A windy overnight was handled well by the teenage contingent of the crew. Four stops later the Grateful Red was in St. Augustine, home of the CC dealer that sold Ken the Grateful Red, rented Ken the Windy Gill, and provide Ken, Kristine, Jenica, and Liza their US Sailing certificates.
The ocean crossing voyage begins as the Grateful Red departs Key West for Oslo, Norway. Crew of Jenica, Matt, Joey, Lisa, Ken, and Kristine head north stopping at Key Largo to visit Wendell and Shelley. A party stop at Miami south beach and finally to Fort Lauderdale and Pier 66. A very posh marina, the Grateful Red could go on the deck of some of the motor yachts.
Send off parties at Ken and Kristine’s two favorite Key West establishments ”the Conch Harbor Tiki bar and Schooner’s Wharf and owner Avalena” part of the Grateful Red crew.
See you on the Water
