We debated whether to hang out in St. Augustine for a couple of days, but the cold temperatures continued and the warmer temperatures of southern Florida beckoned. So, we cut loose from the mooring and pointed TIKA in the direction of Daytona Beach. Tides were favorable and we made exceptional time averaging 8 mph. OK, remember, this is a trawler, not a speedboat. Anything over 7 mph is fantastic. We decided to spend Christmas eve at a Marina, so we pulled into Halifax Harbor Marina around 2:00pm and took nice hot showers, ate dinner at an Italian restaurant, and walked around Daytona Beach. All in all, another nice day and we are now officially in Central Florida.
