Little River Sports & Outdoors Tips by grandmaR

MM 345.1 Cricket Cove Yacht Club

When we couldn't get Lighthouse Keeper Marina to answer, we came on past and stopped here. They asked if we mind being on the face dock, but we didn't, so we head in. We see the guy coming down the dock in a golf cart as we run aground. Bob swears and backs off and goes back out into the channel, turns around and approaches from the north side. We are tied up with 40 miles at 7.2 mph for a total of 677 nm since leaving Miami.

After we tied up, SEA BONDS came in and tied up behind us. They are a Moody, and draw 5.5 feet, and he \ says they are having engine problems with oil usage, so they have been taking it slowly. Bob did the laundry there and was happy with it. They had 2 washers, whereas there was only one at Wacha Wachee.
