Tim (a.k.a. Maca) would eventually have to fly back North so … my original plan was to get the boat close to Fort Lauderdale or Miami international airport. Then as I was passing Jensen Beach I thought ..o0( Why not cut through the middle of Florida so Tim could catch a flight out of Fort Myers Airport on the west coast? ) The plan changed in that moment. I quickly thought up a new anchorage within daylight’s range of Jensen Beach.
Our new location took us into Port St. Lucie and it’s beautiful waterfront homes.

Nice home in Stuart
Dolphins are plentiful around Port Saint Lucie and this pod was enjoying swimming along with us.
With the sun was getting low, we only had to get through the Britt Point Railway Bridge and Old Roosevelt (Dixie Highway) Bridge to make it to our chosen anchoring location. When we arrived at the railway bridge we found a very-very long train passing over it.
The train finished the bridge raised and we hailed the Old Roosevelt (Dixie Highway) Bridge on the VHF for an opening. Soon we made it to my chosen anchoring location (shown by the blue dot below)
Winter #3, leg #23 looked like this.
The sun was down and it was time to bring out the green lights and start fishing.

The battle of the fishermen had begun and the captain walked away with bragging rights 😉
