Gulf Stream.

Feb 17,2005......return trip, Bimini to Miami....we set sail/motor (the wind was still sleeping) at approx. 8:30 Am . Captain Mark put us on course to the Maimi shores under a clear blue sky at about 6.0 knots....should arrive about 4:30....so far so good with a "gentle to the novice sailor stomach' Atlantic. The auto pilot is now renamed either Mark,Tim, Mike or Lucina! We're trying to catch a fish or two, however all fisherman Tim has done so far is seaweed ......maybe vegetarian is the way to go for the trip back. Not many ships on the horizon.....according to Captain Mark, it's Thursday and a front is coming in....... but the Stray Cat sails on. Not a cloud in the sky......just the endless sea, touching the endless sky,...all against the gentle rhythm of the Beatles and Barry
Manilow. Our approach to the shores of miami have begun....back to the real world.....I think?! It's been a grand trip...a few cloud puffs here and there, calm waters. and all smiles from everyone. If you sailors out there happen to see a rowdy little boater with our fishing line, he did a fancy two-step behind us without so much as a backward glance and almost took our reel as well......he probably also took Tim's catch of the day as well. So much for courteous boaters...maybe he was to close to Miami to know any better?! What do you think/!?! New's FLASH.........last moment excitment....we just went over a crab pot and it got tangled in the propellar fortunately that engine was not running, however Captain Mark had to "dress up" in his wet suit and cut us loose....we're free and on the move again. As earlier mentioned it's been a terrific adventure....Captain Mark is the "Cat"s Meow" of the Stray Cat!!!!!!! For anyone out there looking for a special trip that you want to enjoy again and again......Captain Mark and the Stray Cat are THE WAY TO GO!!!!!!! I'm sorry to say our trip has come to a close.....it's one of the few times that you don't want the answer to "are we almost there" to be yes!!! Till next time on the Stray Cat....Happy Trails from Captain Mark, Lucinda, Mike and Tim
