April 7, Palm Beach, FL

As we cruised north from Ft Lauderdale, we approach Pompano and turn west into Lake Santa Barbara to see our old home on the water. Great memories growing up here.

2480 SE 7th Drive, Pompano Beach. Now yellow and has a pool.
Otherwise, looks the same.

We cruised north on the Intercoastal Waterway and went through several bridges that had to open for our 22' air height.

We caught up with, and passed, two 'loopers' that we had met in Ft Lauderdale who were heading north, SALES & NAILS II (Jim and Mary) and BIDDI AND THE BEAST (Dan and Biddi Langford).

Ended at the day after traveling 30 miles at the Palm Harbor Marina, a new marina located in the heart of West Palm Beach. There are several large yachts here (over 100') but not many smaller boats. Marina had three quarters of it's slips empty. Very nice facilities and friendly staff.


Our marina is located almost at the foot of Clamatis Street. We took the free trolly from Clamatis Street to City Place and walked around the shopping area, then returned on the trolly to Bradfords Restaurant for dinner at the end of the day.

We finished the day with a tour of a new 74' catamaran (built in France) berthed next to us at the marina. Very nice with a price of $3,500,000
