March 3, 2025 Conch Harbor Marina Key West to Safe Harbor Marina Marathon 42.1 NM, 4:51 h, 8.7 kn And just like that, we’re on the move again! We had smooth waters from Key West to Marathon where we stayed for 4 nights. We biked out the old 7 Mile Bridge to Pigeon Key which had been on my “to do someday” list for a while, enjoyed “Cheeseburger in Parafries” at Herbie’s, took our dinghy to lunch at Dockside and visited our friends on Jamin’ in the mooring field. When we weren’t out exploring the island we were enjoying the beautiful pool at the marina. Our last night in Marathon we witnessed the debris from a SpaceX Starship explosion reenter the atmosphere – it looked like fireworks falling from the sky rather than shooting up into the sky, something you definitely don’t see everyday during dinner.

March 7, 2025 Safe Harbor Marina Marathon to Three Waters Marina Islamorada 36.8 NM, 4:47 h, 8.1 kn. Beautiful cruising, beautiful water and beautiful marina! What a great day! Three Waters Marina was spectacular, crystal clear blue water, a great tiki bar, live music, comfortable chairs to enjoy a docktail and great food. We wished we could stay longer but once again the winds are picking up and it’s best to move on before they kick up.
