The Wishes crew all slept good and left the marina around 10:30am.

After getting us out of the marina, Mike went back to work.

Jen and autopilot drove today… with Teddy’s help (see pictures below)

The dogs did much better than the day before. We could all tell the dogs had a little PTSD from yesterday’s bumpy ride. We had a really nice and warm day. We made it to Panther Key Anchorage in about 5 hours. Mike and Jen set the anchor, and checked our surroundings to get an idea of our position. there was a fishing boat pulled up on the beach, and the family had brought and set up tents to camp there for the night.

Mike made cheeseburgers for dinner, they were delicious.

After dinner Mike went out to check our surrounding and make sure our anchor wasn’t dragging. He was confused on why our boat was facing opposite the wind. Which could mean one of two things, the anchor was dragging or the current was stronger than the wind. To test the current vs. wind theory, Jen had an idea. She took the anchor ball and put it in the water. If the wind was stronger than the current the ball would drift the direction of the wind, and if the current was stronger the ball with drift into the wind. The ball drifted into the wind, the current was stronger which meant the boat was facing the correct way. Good job Jen!!

We watched Big Bang Theory, and went to bed early. Bonnie got to have a sleepover with Jen and Harley, Teddy was invited but choose to sleep with Mike and Kelly.
