We arrived in Miami at the crack of dawn on Friday after sailing (motoring mostly) overnight from Stuart. We had some problems with our auto pilot and will see about getting it resolved. We have a nice breeze this morning and we are told it will be 81 degrees. We had a couple we met in Stuart over for a drink last night and showed them some of South Beach today. He is coming over tomorrow to look at our auto pilot. I am hopeful I will only need a new compass.
It was great walking down the Lincoln Mall today. It's not your typical mall. The closed about 7 blocks of Lincoln Ave and put in fountains and restaurants, etc. While in Publics today we ran into a young man we met last year in St Mary's, GA. He is single handing his way down to the Florida Keys.
As soon as the auto pilot is fixed and we get a good weather window we will head to Nassau. It looks like the wind will be out of the North East for the next several days. We need to wind to be out of the south to cross the Gulf Stream.
As my friend Ed Kelly says, I hope this is a great week for you.
John & Elyse
