We set a course south for Elliott Key, but the wind and time weren’t in our favor. Realizing we wouldn’t make our intended run, we swung her around and dropped anchor off Key Biscayne. The water was warm and inviting — we dove in, letting the sea wash over us. The little deckhands found a new thrill: swinging from the boom and launching themselves into the blue like wild dolphins.

Spotted a sea turtle off the port side — always a good omen.

On the homeward leg, we unfurled the Genoa and caught a steady 14-mph southeast wind. She pushed us along at a steady 6 to 7 knots — smooth sailing all the way back to harbor.
