12.16.08 Manatee Pocket, Stuart, FL

Larry needed a new starting battery so we stopped in Manatee pocket for the night.

The bottom is very muddy…this is our neighbor in the anchorage washing down their chain.

We were blessed with another beautiful sunrise.

Here are a few of the “modest” homes we saw… We were really impressed with the color of the water as we got near the inlets. We are in an anchorage near N Palm Beach. Nice dock at a launch ramp for taking Raisin ashore. Jim and I took a quick swim. The water here is nice but not as pretty as it was earlier.
