Pumpkin Key North anchorage, Card Sound, Florida: March 30, 2021

Marc- We anchored just North of Pumpkin Key and South of the Angelfish Creek passage from Card Sound to Hawk Channel and the Atlantic Ocean. There are several other boats anchored nearby and the passing fishing boats ended at about sunset. Another hot and humid day here but we are cooling off with the new air conditioning. We enjoyed walking around the parks in Islamorada near our marina and checked out at about 11:00 to get a favorable tide. The waters we passed through were incredibly beautiful and all shades of blue and green. The photos never show everything. No mishaps along the way back towards Miami and the mainland. The boat behaved well until we did a test at dinner time. The engine failed to start when it was hot. It did start about an hour later.
Sue did an excellent job at the helm once we put the genoa out. We took the lead for the last few bays ahead of Fiddler's Green. Sue dropped the anchor and it set perfectly the first time. Great sunset. (Photos to follow).
