🐬⚡🚀 Dolphins, Lightning, and Rockets… OH MY!

The throwback story of our ICW adventure continues, and Florida certainly wasn’t making things boring!

Over the next three days, we cruised from Jensen Beach to Daytona Beach with no mast and electric motors.

We had lots of dolphins, a little nighttime bioluminescent magic, a front-row seat to a rocket launch that happened later than we hoped, and one HECK of a thunderstorm that included a lightning strike WAY too close for comfort! 😳

Three days, three blog posts, and one YouTube video covering all the adventures (and misadventures) along the way!

👇 Start with Day 4 below, then follow along through Days 5 and 6. And don’t forget to check out the video to see it all in action!

We are still in Florida. STILL! Day 4 of our ICW adventure took us from Jensen Beach to Melbourne, from the Treasure Coast to the Space Coast with ALL the dolphins, crab pots, and annoying boat wakes along the way. We wrapped up with cold drinks at Frigate's, a Team USA win, and an unexpected nightt...

It’s been toooo long since we donned tanks and descended into the deep. It was time to rectify that!

We joined Eco Dive - Grenada for 2 morning dives and a great time. A solid outfit! We highly recommend.

Dive 1: A steady drift dive (20-60') past ‘Purple Rain’ Reef. A thriving reef off Southwestern Grenada, full of colorful coral, sponges, and all the reef fish you could hope for!

Dive 2: A stop at the sunken ‘MV Tyrell Bay,’ (50-70') a retired US coast guard vessel that was purposely cleaned out and sitting upright in the newly minted Grand Anse Marine Protected Area. The first boat I have ever swam through under water!

After the boat we drifted over to ‘Northern Exposure’ Reef (20-60') to finish out the morning. Another colorful underwater community of coral, sea fans, and schools of fish.

Throwback stories!

ICW Adventures from 2023 - Central Florida (Days 1-3) blog posts and YouTube video are up!

No mast, electric motors, and over 1,000 miles of the Intracoastal Waterway ahead of us. What could possibly go wrong?! After months of motor drama in South Florida, Water Wings was finally heading north!

Follow our (mast-less) Vision 444 catamaran from Fort Lauderdale to Pompano Beach on Day 1 of our ICW adventure, powered by electric motors.

Look at this beautiful baby Kracken I found hanging out near our boat!

He was kind enough to stop and pose for a glamour shot!

Back in 2023, Water Wings took on the ICW! And I finally got around to writing about it. ⛵🚤

https://waterwingssailing.com/all/our-intercoastal-waterway-icw-adventure-begins-1000-miles-to-go-plus-notes-and-tips-on-taking-on-your-own-journey/

We're finally telling the story of our July 2023 journey from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to Norfolk, Virginia!

What could have possibly gone wrong?! 😂

After months of motor drama (and more than a few headaches), we were FINALLY heading north. No mast. Electric motors. Over 1,000+ miles of the Intracoastal Waterway. It was an unexpected and amazing adventure.

We're doing things a little differently with this series. Our YouTube videos will cover larger sections of the ICW, while the blog will break the journey down day by day, with all the little details, lessons learned, beautiful scenery, and inevitable boat-life nonsense along the way.

**First up: Our ICW Introduction!**

How we planned the route, what we learned, and why we ended up cruising north without a mast in the first place.

And coming next? Our first three days through South Florida, along with the first YouTube video!

Grab a drink and come along for the ride. 🍻
