This day started out to be wonderful. It was a beautiful run....some of the prettiest landscapes I've seen. AND.....I saw three manatees. I tried to take a picture of two of them but no dice. The third one I saw up close and personal but I didn't have my camera and I wasn't about to leave....so the picture will have to stay in my mind. Definitely ugly creatures but beautiful to me....
Then it happened, the steering arm broke and thus began the rest of the day. James did managed to get us out of the channel....not an easy feat when you have no steering. We anchored and called Boat-Usa but they had an eight hour wait so they called Seatow who could be there in two hours. Can't say enough good things about Seatow and the Coast Guard. They were both concerned and kept in touch the entire way. It was pleasant being pulled the 15 miles to Ponce Inlet. We sat back on the deck and I fixed dinner during time we were on the water.
