Carolyn and I finally got a chance to leave out of Panama City and headed for Port St. Joe. It was a surprise for us, with the good forecast that we had, to get the weather that we got. We had 10-12 ft. seas and 20 kt. winds with gusts to about 25 kts. The only blessing was that the seas were on our starboard quarter which helped push us along at a good speed, in fact we surfed down the face of the waves ocassionally doing 7-8 kts. Carolyn did really well holding our course on her watch. We only really shipped water once and that was during my watch, and I got drenched from head to toe and completely through.

It was very loud and fast.
A bit rough ! A good 12 footer.
We picked up a stow-away in Panama City
We decided we needed a boat mascot so we named it Panama and will let it stay on board as long as it wants.
