Sat Aug 14 - I took the small boat, 230LX Stingray, 350magMPI/B1, off the lift, out the Myakka River, South down Charlotte Harbor, West to Boca Grande Pass, & South to N. Captiva island. I anchored in 3 ft of water in the Gulf, 1.5 miles North of where Hurricane Charley made landfall and cut a pass, connecting the Gulf to bay, 6 years, 1 day ago, today. The devastation is still amazing.

I really enjoy that area. It's too bad Sanibel is as busy as it is now. One tiome I was gonna try and swim across from Captiva to North Captiva after walking all the way to the end of the island. After I was out there in a boat, I'm glad I changed my mind. One hell of a current going through the gap there......:eek:

Yep, crazy currents in the pass between the islands.
