Floating City!

We are in Vero Beach at the municipal marina. This marina is unlike most others in that they have a mooring field. It's a place where many boats tie to moorings instead of a dock and there are lots here including us and quite a few Canadian boats. It is like a small floating city and is encouraged by the city of Vero Beach to draw in tourists. Free shuttle service downtown makes this a nice stop. We will spend a few days here and enjoy the surroundings.
Joanna did a great job of steering the boat into the mooring field in a stiff breeze while I was on deck to "spear" the mooring ball with my boat hook.
We have come over 800 miles now and so we are about 2/3 of the way to our final destination.
very windy today...actually too windy to sail!!!! 40 more miles today, all on the "iron genny".(motor)
