Vero Beach to Merritt Island

April 29, 2017 – Saturday

Today we traveled to Habortown Marina, Merritt Island in hopes of seeing the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch that is scheduled for 7:15 am tomorrow. Wish us luck!

Today we saw lots of mansions with private docks, sea birds, and people out having a good time, after all, it is Saturday. But what I remember most is the number of derelict, abandoned, and at-risk boats that we have seen in just the past two days. It seems that sometimes they were abandoned after a wreck, lived on and then abandoned, or a fatality of hurricane Matthew. In addition to being an eyesore, some are navigationally dangerous to other boaters. Like many social issues, this problem will take a time to solve.
