LET'S GO SAILING F ew things are more serene than cruising along on a sailboat. A mixed elixir of blue skies, puffy white clouds and the sound of the sails whipping in the breeze. Welcome aboard the Sloop Anna Lee, where relaxation is the name of the game, and the experience is unforgettable. Captain Jim has been sailing the waters of Lemon Bay since the 1960’s and his son, Levi, has sailed the same waters since 1995. These two seasoned sailors create for you a complete, custom adventure. 27 | THE SAND DOLLAR by Deana Camerlingo Take a tour and meander along the waters of Ski Alley. Sail into the Gulf of Mexico. You’re on an authentic, 30 foot, 1977 Hunter Cherubini. There’s never a shortage of wildlife along the journey. You may spot Giant Loggerhead Sea Turtles, manatee and Spotted Eagle Rays. There is an abundance of pelicans and dolphin. One special guy, a dolphin that the locals have named Friendly, can usually be seen in the same spot, running fish along a seawall.
