Mobile Bay was not happy when we crossed with our friends on Side Piece. Following seas from a north wind, with spray, but we made it ok. First time to see salt on everything.
First time on the ICW and first dolphins. We landed at The Wharf marina and for the first time we were the little kid on the block, the marina is full of $3 million tuna tower Vikings. Even the cleats were embossed.
We used our dinghy to travel 3 miles to Lulu’s a touristy restaurant in Gulf Shores on the ICW and upgraded to “bucket sized” rum punch and had a good time.
Today the water changed to clearer and we saw 35 dolphins we feel like we are in the gulf now. Arrived at Palafox Pier marina, recently recovered from hurricane sally that ripped out their docks and sunk 20 boats.
We have another day here so tomorrow we will fuel up, pump out, and explore Pensacola. Here is our track across Mobile Bay. https://reports.nebo.global/e35e2e8b-8ee3-4ef8-952d-015249ae99ed/5009dd9a-7833-45a6-b400-09cd48419612.pdf?v=760396015

Crossing Mobile… were you on a channel or on your own Crouse. What was the depth?
