We motored through the shoaling area at Ponce with no problems. After that, we had to time the opening of a few bridges. Two of them near the Kennedy Space Center will not open for marine traffic during the hours employees of the center are commuting to and from work. We caught the first one on time, however we were late for the second bridge. We had to wait for a little more than an hour to get beyond. By then it was close to sunset... so we anchored south of the bridge and settled in for a quiet evening onboard. If we can cover the same distance tomorrow that we did today, we should be in the protected mooring fields of Vero Beach by sunset. Which will be before the heavy weather is forecasted to blow in.
