Blessing of the fleet
Today, after a spectacular brunch at the Marathon Yacht Club, we enjoyed the annual "Blessing of the Fleet" ceremony. A local minister walked the docks and blessed each boat for the season. We were "Dressed" for the occasion. For Ivory Lady, that means full flags displayed. Perhaps the blessing will keep us safe and trouble free for this next year.
Of course, it's not going perfectly all the time. We discovered that the clothes washer is dumping lots of water into the carpet and storage lockers under the galley floor. Time to invoke our Mainship warranty! We can't seem to find access to the back of the washer and dryer. Hope it's not a skill saw job!
Otherwise, the weather finally is beginning to feel like the Keys. We're looking forward to some cruises with the boating group here at the club. We've met several of them and like them very much. The next cruise is to Key West in a couple of weeks. Stay tuned.
