SHIP'S LOG:
In case you might be wondering, an "un-grounding" costs$850 between Daytona Beach and New Smyrna Beach. Yup, I did it again! But it really wasn't my fault. I was dead center between two marks and I went up on a bar and had to call the guys in the red boat . . . again! To make matters worse, the channel had been dredged less than a year ago and already it is half shoaled in. It goes in my book as a place to watch on the way back in the Spring. Talking with the Towboat US operator he noted that they average at least one sailboat a day at that very spot. I wouldn't feel so bad if I had been out of the channel, but right in the middle!!!! You would think they would mark it better. I may have to get a subscription to SEATOW for the trip back as TowboatUS probably has my name on a list of some kind somewhere, though I would think that I now know where I have to be extra careful and might not go aground at all on the trip back. Maybe it would be safer to go outside all the way back?
A couple of miles further on, the ICW goes right around Chicken Island and that stretch was also dredged within the last two years. And like the spot I hit, it already is shoaling in. Boaters avoid it like the plague. Luckily, the channel around the left side of Chicken Island is fairly wide and deep and that's the way I went. The thing is that the ICW channels, those cut between bays, rivers and lagoons are not natural and so good old Mother Nature tries to fill them in. For the Core of Engineers, it is a never ending battle and one that isn't a government priority in the dispersal of funding, state or federal. Strangely, what also contributes to the problem is people using the ICW. Tugs and barges create lots of turbulence and that sucks sill and mud and sand into the channel. Anyone in any size boat doing over 10 knots creates enough of a disturbance to do the same.
I have been following Skipper Bob's Publication on the ICW and for the most part it has been very helpful. However, it needs serious up dating. Many of the places that he recommends as anchorages have been taken over by the locals with their mooring or have silted in such that they are not usable. That was the case here in New Smyrna Beach. New docks, new mooring and shoals have made it difficult to find a spot to drop a free hook, so I found a cheap Marina, the New Smyrna Beach City Marina . . .$1/foot! and all the amenities. Ah Hot showers and warm toilet seats.
Tomorrow is a long haul through Mosquito Lagoon and the Haulover Canal and on into Titusville. The weather will be nice and clear with a high in the mid - 60's. But don't despair, there is a cold front coming on Wednesday but it will clear out immediately . . . . to make room for a bigger and badder and colder cold front on Christmas Day. Of course it is just the type of weather Santa likes what with all that fur he wears. Why couldn't the man wear Bermuda Shorts?

It WasTo Good To Last!
SHIP'S LOG:
Well, all good things come to an end, even if they are short to begin with. Three days of temps in the mid 60's, one in the mid 70's, and today it is back to where it has been for three weeks. Maybe not that bad, but close enough.
When I got up this morning . . . well let me tell you about that! I was sleeping soundly when suddenly I became aware that the wind was up and the boat was rocking. I hit the light on my watch and read "6:39", so I figured I might as well get up. I did and went out and check the anchor. There was a misty rain falling and a stiff wind blowing(15-20) and it was cold. I let out a little more rode and went back and made breakfast coffee. I turned on the GPS to get the depth and to watch the little boat go round and round. I got my coffee and as I watched the little boat go round and round, the clock in the nav station chimed . . . once. That got my attention! If I got up at "6:39", the next chiming should have been 6 bells - 7AM. I looked at my watch and it was "6:49". I looked closer and realized that it was the Stopwatch function running. I had turned it on somehow. I shut it off, hit it for the time and it was 12:32AM. So there I was wide a wake, with a a jolt of coffee and it basically was midnight. Great! I went back to bed but not to sleep, at least not for a couple of hours until it was time to really get up.
It was still raining and cold and windy. I guess the front that pushed through as expected took the warm weather away and left the rain and cold and wind from Saturday. It also left fog. It looked to be a miserable day so I decided to stay in Daytona. One good thing about being this far south, even if It isn't always the warmest, if you want to hang for a day or so you can . . . until the police come and make you move on which they will do to me come Tuesday when my "5 day Daytona Anchoring limit" will be up. If I was a lawyer and had lots of money, I would stay and fight it but I am not and I don't so I will move on . . .tomorrow. Besides I am wearing one of my favorite T-Shirts from the Folger Shakespeare Museum in DC, with a quote from Act II of Henry VI, "The first thing we do is kill all the lawyers." It's easier to move.
Row into Daytona for ice and some groceries. The part I hit didn't have much to recommend it sad to say. It looked like "run down everyplace USA." It does have a skateboard park which is open 24/7 and which, much to my chagrin, is used 24/7.
Christmas is less than a week away and to answer the question asked by several, "NO, I have no idea where I will be spending Christmas nor with whom." At this moment though, "I'm dreaming of a hot Christmas!"

NOAA Got It Right!
SHIP'S LOG:
Well NOAA was right on the money with the forecast. It rained in the morning. It rain ed in the after noon. It looks like it is going to rain tonight. Three for three! So staying put was a good call once again.
Tomorrow, I will be off to New Smyrna Beach and hopefully will find a spot to drop the hook. The prospects are, as they say," slim." Some spots just don't have any place to anchor. But if not, there is always a marina.
From there it will be the long run to Titusville and warmer weather. I have got lots of shorts and T-shits that haven't seen the light of day in a while and are hankering to get out!

The Promised Land!
SHIP'S LOG:
I got in to Daytona Beach yesterday with temperatures in the mid-60's. Today the temps hit the mid 70's and there wasn't a cloudy in the sky. Tomorrow it is supposed to rain but the temp will still be in the mid 60's as it is supposed to be for the rest of the week. I have arrived in the Promised Land! ! ! ! ! ! !
Hopefully, the last of the "winter" weather has departed and nevermore to return but one never quite knows about these things. Still the weather is a vast improvement over the last couple of weeks. I'll take all I can get. I am waiting for that night as I am trying to sleep and am tossing and turning because it is too9 hot. Let me have it!
The trip down from Palm Coast was uneventful which is just the way I like them, True to form, NOAA got the wind speeds wrong and it was rather more breezy than expected but it was warm. The ICW is a little bit spotty in depth but nothing that a sudden stop and a slow proceeding with eyes on the depth sounder couldn't take care of. Things really opened up in Daytona Beach but all that seemingly "open water" is around 4 feet at low tied and not all that deep at high tide. There looks like a thousand places to go but they really ain't there. One of the best spots, across for Caribbean Jack's Restaurant has w wreak right in the middle of it and if you are not careful you can add to the wreckage. I anchored past all the bridges nearer Halifax Harbor, a rather popular place if the number of "anchor-ees" is any indication. I'll be here for another day. It is a logistical problem. I would like to get to Titusville but that is almost a 50 mile run and that means 10 hours. New Smyrna Beach is about 14 miles down "the road" but doesn't have a lot of places to drop a hook. And Saturday it is going to rain. If I left today and got to New Smyrna, cutting 13 miles off the run to Titusville, and couldn't find the room to drop a hook, I would end up spending two days in a marina which I can't afford. So I'll stay in Daytona Beach and leave on Sunday and go to New Smyrna and if necessary, spend one night in a marina. Then make the shorter run to Titusville which has anchorages everywhere.
To let you know just how cold it got down here, when I was up in St. Augustine it got so cold and the wind blew so hard that the vinyl windshield in my dodger split. Also, there has even been a fish kill as the water was too cold for some to survived. Man, that's cold. I don't care where you are. But that's all behind me now . . . . I hope.

Almost Out Of The Blue!
SHIP'S LOG:
I pulled out of St. Augustine Marina in about 20 knots of wind and head south on The ICW on Tuesday morning. It was so cold due to the wind that I had on two pairs of woolen socks, a pair of insulated jeans over which I wore sweat pants, a long sleeved woolen shirt on top of which I wore a woolen sweater and a jacket, I wore two pairs of gloves and a wool hat. It was cold! I was sure glad that I was only going 25 miles or so, the dash to Daytona Beach would really have been miserable.
Several place north of Crescent Beach were shoaling badly. I don't know when the last dredging of this section of the ICW was done but they need to do one again soon. It was dangerous to follow the ICW Magenta line on the charts and I really had to pick my way along in some places by depth sounder alone. A power boat shot by me once and about a mile ahead I think he went aground, but softly. He started moving very slow through a series of turns . When I go to the point I could see why. A shoal had crossed into the channel and I had to maneuver around it in an area the chart said not to go. At one point, it got down to 8 1/2 feet on the depth sounder, just the as it had read the first time I went aground but I never touch, or if I did, I never felt it.
I got to the Crescent Beach Bascule Bridge and asked for an opening. The bridge tender responded by saying, "Sure, but we are doing work on the bridge and only one side is working. Stay to the right." It is bad enough going through a bascule bridge when both sides are working as the Bimini blocks my vision of the bridge and I have to line up in the center before I try to go through, hoping that there is no current to move me to the side less I strike the raised portions with my mast. I got through just fine and as I was leaving, I asked the bridge tender where all the warm weather was as this, after all, was Florida. He responded by saying, "Florida is the Sunshine State. we make no claims about warmth!"
The people with houses on the ICW in Crescent Beach are luckier than many of the counterparts in other places. There is no chance that their views will be blocked by developments. ON one side they have the ocean and on the other, the western shore of the ICW is all National Wildlife Refuge.
When I got to Palm Coast, I pulled into the Marina at Ocean Hammock. It is part of a resort development that went bust when the economy tanked. It is not really a marina. There is no fuel dock, no facilities for transients, no store, no nothing really. I think that it was actually a marina for the boats of the people that owned condo there. I couldn't even hail them on the radio and had to get in contact by phone. It's beautiful spots with some beautiful boats and perhaps, in the future, they will really open it up to passing boaters.
My "inviters" whisked me to their home for dinner and it was wonderful. Rich and Martha really made me feel right at home. I knew them slightly from up north but really it was a very casual relationship. But they were warm and generous, almost embarrassingly so. They actually sprang for another night at the marina, "So the weather will get warmer" and even picked up the tab for my grocery shopping. I am still floored by their generosity. Martha said that I had to stop by again when I head north in the spring. I think I can arrange that!
This morning, I laid out the course to Daytona Beach and locked in three possible anchorages. The weather is supposed to be "high - mid 60's/ low - mid 40's" and even warmer the days after. Perhaps, just perhaps, I am getting out of the cold weather. I certainly hope so. I am really getting sick of it. Then again, the locals are going out of their minds!

At Least It Didn't Snow! ! ! ! ! !
SHIP'S LOG:
Last night the wind blew something fierce. I got up today to hear NOAA say that we had wind gusts "of gale force" last night. They were enough to heel the boat significantly and enough to make me get up out of a warm bunk and go on deck and run another 1/2 inch line through the eye in the mooring pennant. It wasn't that cold when I went to bed but I could feel the temperature dropping as the night went on. My nose got cold !
I'll say one thing, everything sounds and feels worse at night. I doubt that the wind was really any stronger last night than during the day but the sound of it and the heeling sure made it seem worse. I heard all sorts of squeaks and rattles and tapping and all sorts of other noises that I had to identify. I had to know what they were or I just would not have fallen asleep and that took long enough as it was. I was really, REALLY glad that I hadn't succumb to the sunshine and warmth of the morning and made a dash down the ICW. It would have been really awful on a hook last night. I probably would have spent the night in front of the GPS watching the little sailboat go round and round and watching the depth sounder too. Having done that a couple of times, I can tell you it is no way to spend a night. Not that I want to experience it again, but I really didn't feel the boat dragging that time back in Thoroughfare Creek. Despite her size, ABISAHG moves fairly sprightly and it is tough for me to pick up any dragging though everyone says that you will know it when it happens. It is an experience I do not wish to repeat . . . like grounding.
I really feel sorry for some of the travelers on the ICW these cold nights. I wonder how many are adequately prepare3d. I got a semi-late start and so have a lot of cold weather clothes aboard but I wonder about the others. And when it rains, everything gets damp and never really dries out and that makes the cold even worse. I really felt for those swinging on a hook anywhere last night.
I got a call from a couple whose relatives I know. The live in Palm Coast about 25 miles south of St. Augustin e. They invited me in for dinner tomorrow and will even pick up the tab for dock the boat at the local marina. Free food and warmth. How can I pass that up?
The NOAA weather forecast this morning said that the cold front would move off out of the area Thursday. It is expected to head SOUTH!!!!!!! There has got to be some warm weather somewhere in this state . .. probably on the west coast!

NOAA Use The "S" Word Today!!!!!
SHIP'S LOG:
I am sitting on a Municipal Mooring in beautiful St. Augustine and today NOAA used the "S" word in the weather forecast . . . "SNOW"! Only a possibility mind you and it would be just flurries, but SNOW?
I am here until Tuesday as I wait out the weather. We are supposed to get another cold front of "Arctic Air" coming in tonight and the weather Monday will be cold and very windy. I am waiting out the rapid and severe weather change until Tuesday when, though cold, the weather should be clear and not so windy. We got gusts up into the mid 30's today and at 8pm Sunday night, they haven't quieted down all that much. They should keep up until after midnight when the cold gets here. What a wonderful thought!
Tuesday, if all things go well, I will make the 45 mile dash to Daytona Beach, not that it is much warmer down there. However, it is a little farther south and that can only be good. Eventually, it has got to get warmer. The weather was a warm and toasty mid-50's today but it soon went all to hell, with pouring rain and the wind. I did have enough time for a quick tour of St. Augustine.
Last night , they had a decorated boat parade and the Spaniards, Pirates and Americans duked it out for control of the city. They fired a lot of cannons and there was a lot of singing and I guess in the end the Americans won. It was interesting to watch from the boat though I didn't get all the commentary. The tourists eat it up, I guess.
It looks like an interesting town, lots of history, but the weather is chasing me south as I chase the warm weather. Nobody here is happy with the weather and the prospects for the coming week haven't helped at all. It has been the most unseasonable weather last few weeks anyone can remember. Even the weather reporting is cockeyed. In the same report they tell you about the rip tides and hypothermia. Figure that one out!
