Well, we asked for it I guess. Florida in May is HOT. We arrived yesterday in Orlando, drove to Ft. Pierce in a rented Ford Focus (not a fan),opened up the boat, tried the air conditioning, found out it would not cool things off enough and headed for the dock bar's happy hour to cool off and figure out how in the hello we were going to sleep in that heat. Did I mention no breeze? Luckily there is a pool, so a swim felt great.
"Summer Wind" had fans installed already, but we have not had time, so this morning went to Home Depot and bought a small stand fan plus a 'personal" battery-operated one for me. Then we went to West Marine to buy wind scoops for the hatches - which only work if there is wind! None of our AC outlets would work so Ray and another guy finally fixed that. Every day of getting a boat ready is tearing it apart then putting it back together again.
Most interesting moment today: while driving in town this morning I saw something BIG flying off a rooftop heading right for us - it was a beautiful peacock! I had to break to miss hitting it. Like to know where that came from.
