Loggerhead Marina, Vero Beach

Getting settled in. Peter had the engine running and electrical cord off, waiting for me on my return from the showers. Quietly, in stealth mode, we ever so gently moved from the transient dock over to our slip for the next 2 weeks. We are only  2 slips away from Greg and Leslie.

Greg was on the dock waiting to catch our lines. Boat secured, power on. Our new home for awhile. Not sure Peter can handle being in one spot for this long, but I am already nesting. Looking forward to being in one spot for awhile. There are books to be read, and a pool to lounge around.

There always is a maintenance list when living on a boat. I am quite sure Peter will have enough projects to keep him as busy as he wants. There are still a few things to get done before we make our way to the Bahamas.

Leslie was not feeling well yesterday. Greg said she is feeling better this morning. Peter is off for his 3 mile walk and then will return for a shower. Then lunch out with Greg and Leslie. They have brought their car down and will show us the highlights of Vero Beach.
To north, and only 2 slips away is Greg and Leslie's boat "Amalia"

Directly behind the boat are individual homes and duplex homes.

In front of the boat are a number of condominiums.


This is a golf course and home development that went bankrupt a number of years ago. Loggerhead came in and bought the marina portion of the development. Which then gave them enough money to finish the project. Much to the chagrin of new and old tenants, there no longer were docks as part of their package.

Staying here for the next 2 weeks will work out quite well for us. The office has already made reservations for us at the reciprocating Loggerhead Marinas on our travels south. It will mean that we will have to travel with a schedule. Ugh. Peter is not good with schedules, but I guess he can live with it for the following 2 weeks. We have set the schedule up with lots of time between marinas if needed.
