Danville Writer Navigates Florida Waterway Memories
Sid Moody recalls the Florida segment of the Intracoastal Waterway in February 1977. He notes crossing the Florida line at 1225 hours, near Daytona Beach, Palm Beach, and Habe Sound, with winter fading and summer hints emerging as the crew nears the Bahamas. The narrative highlights weather, scenery, and encounters, including John McKenzie and his ketch, a parrot, and a near-sinking Gulf Stream episode.
