Stuart to Fort Pierce, Florida

We went ashore for breakfast at Florida Coffee Company which they have redone and are now serving delicious crepes. We walked to the marine supply place for windshield wipers. After our long hike, we stopped at Sailfish Brewery for a cold beer before heading back to the boat. We had a thunderstorm blow through so we stayed put instead of heading for Vero Beach.
