We are sitting in a little anchorage just north of Pablo Creek Bridge having lunch. The reason being that we are in view of a bridge through which the current is now running 5.2 knots against us. We approached the bridge almost an hour ago just to see what it was like with 4.2 knots .... when the 45' power boat that was in front of us got turned sideways in the turbulence, we opted out.
In a couple of hours, the tide will have turned, and the current will begin to abate. At that point we will carry on.
Meanwhile, we have a front row seat to watch the rest of the 'parade' pass by. So far they have all made it, but it looks pretty exciting for a couple of moments right under the bridge.
