North Captiva Island

We saw 2 feet at the 'choke point' when entering--eye-ball navigation required because the GPS chartplotter(s) had me directly over the 3 foot marked location. On departure the next day Robert Sidney and Pecan sounded the way out for Polynya, we never saw under 3 feet (good thing for Polynya with their 3'10" draft!)

Anchored in Fosters Bay off North Captivated Island next to fellow Rosborough owners Dave and Barbara on Robert Sidney. Met their fellow Canadian friends John and Lees on Polynya, a NorSea 27. NW around 10 to 15 knots, low 60s, sunny.Tamara is in heaven with the quantity, diversity and size of the shells on the gulf-side beach.
