Aquamarina Palm Harbour Marina in Cape Haze, Florida
Day #206: Up at 6:30 A.M. for coffee, grapefruit and cookies. Mike and I took multiple loads of gear from the condo to the boat prior to the boat being put back into the water. We had all but the refrigerated and freezer food loaded back on the boat before the marina staff were ready to move the boat to the well. At 8:30 A.M. Mark and Amanda arrived at the marina to help with launching the boat and getting it back to the slip. At 9:20 A.M. the marina staff used the hoist to get the boat from the back of the marina to the well. Mike and Mark got onto the boat as the marina staff lowered the boat into the water. Ed and Kyle stopped over to see if there was anything that they could help with before they headed off to breakfast but we said that we had everything under control. Mitch from the marina was at slip C-5 to help Amanda and I at the dock. After the boat was all set in the slip Amanda, Mark, Mike and I got the rest of the food out of the condo and made sure that the condo was empty leaving the keys as they locked the door. After all of the gear was put away and dinghy was secured to the boat. Amanda, Mark, Mike and I headed to the New Faull Inn for lunch. After lunch Amanda, Mike and I headed to Stump Pass State Park where we did a beach walk. Mike and I checked out the place on Manasota Key where they will be staying next winter. The three stopped at Barefoot Traders for a bit of shopping. For the evening Amanda, Mark, Mike and I had docktails on the "Parrot Bay. At 8:40 P.M. Amanda and Mark headed back to the hotel for the evening. For the two of us it was time for blogging and reading.
Getting the hoist and "Parrot Bay" square so that both could bring the boat through the barn to the well.
