We left Fort Myers Beach on Thursday and sailed to Marco Island. We spent Thursday night and Friday night at the Esplanade Marina on Smokehouse Bay. My little sailboat looked like a toy next to the 60'+ motoryachts. There was only one other sailboat there. I can't post video from this netbook I am using so I will do it when I get home.

Our sail back to Fort Myers Beach was the most eventful passage yet. We had 15kts SSW to go along with 6' rollers coming also from the SSW. It looked like our dingy was going to pass us up on a few occasions.
