Charlotte Harbor is a very wide section of the ICW and a great spot for a sailboat. IE arrives into Burnt Store Marina after fueling at Palm Harbor. When entering Palm Harbor the Skipper notes some smoke from the starboard engine - not again the skipperette said! However the mechanic found a broken hose clamp and after a quick replacement we were on our way. Arrived into Burnt Store Marina which is a 600 acre plus Resort with all kinds of amenities. If you can’t find your exercise of choice here then you have a problem! There are tennis courts, pickle ball, golf, swimming pools, water taxi, yacht club, kayak rental, sailing school , fitness center and a bike path around the grounds. A very active retirement community who are certainly not ready to wind down. The manatees are cruising around and are very difficult to catch due to their camouflage and the brown color of the water. Nana tried really hard to get a picture of them but without success so she resorted to one taken from a picture - it gives the reader some idea of these very special sea monsters.
