Wordless Wednesday | Low Water At Indiantown Marina



Wordless Wednesday is supposed to be about posting a photo(s) without any words. But, I'm a rule breaker, so here are a few words:

1 - When we were at Indiantown Marina fixing our dinghy davit and water pump the water level was really, really low.

2 - See those poles? The top white part normally sits at the waterline. See that dock finger? Normally, the deck of your boat is higher than it and you have to step down onto the dock. When we were there, I had to do some gymnastic like moves to climb up onto it.

3 - People were grounding coming in and out of the marina. Fortunately, its soft mud.

4 - This place sure could do with some rain.

   
What words does this picture(s) bring to your mind when you look at it?

    That is really low. It must be upstream a bit.

      Yes, it's off of a canal between two sets of locks.

    We just spent a winter in super high tides with all the rain we had. In fact it rained last night. Again. I hear you about what needs doing in very high tides and very low tides. It's tough to get on or off your boat at times.

    Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ☺

      It's crazy how much the water level affects getting on and off your boat.

      It's always a good thing to have soft mud when you ground :-)

    Brown water makes me nervous...

      The water is disgusting at the marina. You couldn't pay me enough to get in it.

    A lot of places need rain, unfortunately. I'm glad my area of Florida has seen some rain recently. We've been so brown and dry. I'm sure the water was getting low, too.

      It's been awful in Florida lately with the lack of rain.

    Reminds me of our recent trip in the Netherlands, where the tides also had a great effect on what we saw and did. I'm sure you are loving the water color of the Bahamas better than that of Indiantown!
