Next up is R&R, a 33meter San Lorenzo - both vessels under tow by Cape Ann towing.
It's a busy week on the new river as boats are shuffled up and down the New River making room for the 2023 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show @InformaUSBoatShows
Audio is channel 9 bridge traffic channel and not perfectly synced as there are occasional cuts switching lenses on the drone.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I may do a tour of the while route which I think could be interesting.

Still waiting to see a “mega yacht”

[@WanderbirdLife]

Actually you’re right! Technically these are only super yachts, under 200 feet. I’ll have to catch one of the real monsters sometime.

That water looks disgusting. Is Florida dumping in those waterways?

[@WanderbirdLife]

The water is tidal flow so it flushes in and out daily through many miles of inland waterways and a lot of boats and homes on the water. Dumping raw sewage is definitely not legal but probably happens. Floridas ecology management isn’t great.
