9/21/15: Daytona Beach Anchorage – Melbourne Beach Anchorage – 76.5 NM

It was another beautiful day on the Florida ICW. We anchored at a new (for us) spot at the Melbourne bridge just north of the Melbourne City Marina.

When we pulled in there was a guy & girl operating a Flyboard. It was great entertainment:

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

 A Flyboard is a type of water jetpack attached to a personal water craft (PWC) which supplies propulsion to drive the Flyboard through air and water to perform a sport known as flyboarding. A Flyboard rider stands on a board connected by a long hose to a watercraft. Water is forced under pressure to a pair of boots with jet nozzles underneath which provide thrust for the rider to fly up to 15 m (49 ft) in the air or to dive headlong through the water down to 2.5 m (8 ft).

The next morning we pulled anchor at sunrise to continue south.
