1987 Hunter Legend 37.5

Weekend at Ft. McRee

This weekend was absolutely beautiful. We headed out of Bayou Chico around 8:30am Saturday morning for a leisure sail to Ft. McRee. We dropped the hook around noon and played on the beach for the remainder of the day.

There were other boaters hanging out and cruising around.

There were some floating condos backed to the beach.

We carried firewood with us for roasting marshmallows on Robertson’s Island that night and enjoyed watching the dolphins.

The sky was clear with a full moon and a perfect view of the stars; Sailor Jerry’s Rum tasted extra good!

We slept in till about 6am Sunday morning, fixed breakfast, and made coffee. It was perfect.

Around 8:30am we made our leisurely way back to Chico arriving around noonish.

Here’s a map of our weekend traveling.
