November 11
Today in the USA it's Veterans Day and over in Canada it's Remembrance Day, my thoughts are with ALL the soldiers. However, hurricane IDA is creating lots of rain for us here in Core Creek. With Joana's new hard Bimini we have been harvesting rain water into 6 gallon jugs and relocating the H20 inside the water tanks. We transferred a total of 200 gallons of rain water into the tanks. We filtered the rain water three times and it looked crystal clear. In the early morning we inventoried all the canned goods on bo
ard, which will most likely be our offshore food. I tested my foul weather gear, my built-in harness and PFD. It’s been a really slow day. They are predicting to have 9 inches of rain in the next two and a half days. Noticed a few boats going down the Intra Coastal Waterways (ICW) motoring down and heading south. Our sailing destination is still unknown. Wade and Diane are looking at various locations including the Bahamas, Cuba and if our offshore route goes bad we’ll be making land fall back to Florida. The options are all dependent on a five day weather window. of good weather.
