March 2nd & 3rd IE anchors at Cayo Costa and Pine Island

Ireland’s Eye heads black to Pelican Pass to spend a nice quite evening anchoring. The above picture is Nandad preparing dinner while Nana is having a pedicure! Now a pedicure on a boat is not quite the same as at the spa but the next best thing. While watching the sunset which you can see is spectacular Nana has managed to make her toes sparkle. Our dinner was amazing with candle light and wine - very romantic - just goes to show it doesn’t have to be Valentines Day. While watching the night sky Nandad spotted the Newport Trumpy Freedom cruising along looking quite magnificent. 



It was a very windy night and in the morning there were some boats that ended up towards the shoreline but IE held fast. Nana and Nandad attempted to dingy over to the state park however due to extensive damage to the docks it proved a little challenging so we decided against. 

March 3rd Saturday morning. Now we realize that the weather back in Massachusetts has seen high winds with lots of damage and also a severe snow storm in Ireland so we feel lucky here in FL. IE heads to Pine Island to anchor directly across from YORK Island. Now funny as it may seem Nana compares anchoring to snow days. They make you sit back and enjoy where you are right now in the moment. The prefect spot to just snooze, read a book and enjoy the surroundings. Nana and Nandad took the opportunity tonite to lie back on the bridge and watch the stars - the Milky Way was amazing. And just before we thought the moon was missing it appears right at our stern two days after full moon - quite the sight.


To all our loved ones may you one day experience the magic of the precious moment and enjoy all that Mother Nature has to offer.
