We left early on this Sunday morning heading out of Indian Key Pass, hoping to beat low tide. Trying to follow the buoys, it was very difficult to stay out of shallow water. Sooooo, we ran aground; twice!
Sonny managed to back up enough both times to get us off the shoal. We traveled 40 miles this day, and all the way the water was only 8' - 10' deep, staying about 3 miles offshore. The day was absolutely beautiful, so it was a great ride. We anchored out in Little Shark River, along with 7 other boats. Some of us are waiting to cross the gulf heading to the Keys!!! Others going the opposite direction.

Beautiful water; but shallow! |
This anchorage is in the Everglades and very remote. No cell service!!!
