We left Marco River Marina at 10:00am and headed south in search of white sand beaches. We had read that a place called Indian Key in the Everglades had just that. We arrived there around sunset and found the suggested anchorage to be less than stellar with only a very small beach. We went farther up into the channel towards Everglades City and found a nice sheltered spot among the mangroves. This was our first time using the anchor windlass and I found that if I tried to let out the chain the top of the windlass started to spin off. I had to use a lot of finesse to let out the anchor chain but we managed.
