Quotes from the log of Windreka:
Tuesday, 12 February @ Fort Pierce City Marina - N 27 degrees 27.044 minutes, W 080 degrees 19.348 minutes. Rainy, windy night with gusts to 35 knots from east, Temp 70s, showery all day, wind moderated to <10 knots by evening. Lunch at Java Charlie's nearby. Added 56.9 gallons of diesel fuel @ $3.48/gallon = $177.59. Dockage for 3 nights @ $76/night. Total = $228. Shopping at Publix and West Marine for misc items.
Wednesday, 13 February @ FPCM. Clear, light wind NW <5 knots @0700. Rain at noon. Coffee at Java Charlie's. Install MOB (man overboard) strobe purchased at West Marine yesterday. Purchased new 6 volt lantern battery at local building supply store. Waiting for overnight USPS delivery due yesterday, but not delivered by local post office. Called local post office and promised package would be delivered today. (NOTE: USPS only promises overnight delivery costing $20 to "many" locations...guess Ft. Pierce is one of the "few" locations USPS can't get to in one day!) Alternately rainy and sunny all day. Wind SW 10 - 15 knots. Barometer 2957 rising. Temp 64 degrees in evening.
