January 21, 2013 - North Palm Beach

We anchored in North Lake Worth for 2 weeks as we were waiting for a weather window to cross over to Grand Bahamas. It certainly wasn't a bad place to stay as we were surrounded by multi-million dollar yachts including Tiger Woods little 155 footer named "Privacy". We were also only a few yards away from Jack Nicklaus' home and yachts.

Our stay in this anchorage gave us a great opportunity to receive guests. We had the pleasure of John and Koosje Stassen's company for a couple of days which was a great diversion from working on the boat. It was fun to have them aboard.

After our guests left, it was back to the mundane tasks of sanding and prepping the decks for paint.



Finally got her to do some work, Lol 
Carole's reply "The Captain is a slave master!"



I hate sanding!

One day we dinghyed over to a landing close to a grocery store and on the way, accidentally caught our first fish. The propeller snagged a discarded fishing line which had a live catfish still hooked to it...we did not eat it!! They use strange bait in that area, SNAKE and Carole was grossed out!!!

The view was so beautiful here. The anchorage was full of boats waiting as we were to cross over to the Bahamas. We got together with a couple of boats for drinks and discussed the crossing which we did together.
