EPISODE SUMMARY:
This week, we say goodbye to the Keys and make our long-anticipated jump up the coast to Fort Lauderdale! But not before a little sandbar party, brewery-hopping, a surprise manatee visit, and some world-class ribs courtesy of “Brisket Bob.”

Join us as we:
✔️ Hang at a 50-boat sandbar bash
✔️ Discover Florida Keys Brewing Co. and Square Grouper
✔️ Navigate a rental car fender bender
✔️ Say goodbye to Todd & Tammy after an epic visit
✔️ Refuel with 400 gallons of diesel 😳
✔️ Dodge cruise ships on our way into Port Everglades Inlet
✔️ Dock at Hall of Fame Marina — and watch Olympic divers from the boat
✔️ Cruise Fort Lauderdale’s canals via dinghy
✔️ Celebrate Deb’s birthday with golf at Fort Lauderdale Country Club
✔️ End the day with homemade pasta, wine, and a front-deck sunset (with NO BUGS!)

🧭 WHAT’S NEXT?
We're planning dinghy runs through the New River to explore The Wharf, e-bike rides along the beach, and a slow climb north toward West Palm. Golf clubs in tow!

📌 Don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE to follow our journey as we continue America's Great Loop aboard SeaDAN — one dock, dinghy, and dinner at a time.
