As all good things must come to an end, so must our shakedown cruise.
It was hard to tear ourselves away from one of our new favorite spots on the east side of Peanut Island, but we knew there was still a lot of boat work to be completed before hurricane season finishes, and it would be fastest and easiest to do back at Indiantown Marina.
Heading north on the ICW we were met with three timed bridges which kept us on our toes, trying to time our arrival perfectly, although usually arriving 10 minutes early. Fighting a two knot current that was trying to push us into the bridges, it made for some hectic moments, but we survived.
Pulling out the headsail past Jupiter, we had a nice sail up the coast for as long as the wind would allow it.
Cheers from our shakedown!
