Route plan from Seahaven Superyacht Marina to Loggerhead Marina - Hollywood Marina

Pilotage Plan from Seahaven Superyacht Marina to Loggerhead Marina - Hollywood Marina

Preparation:
Before setting sail, ensure your yacht's navigation systems are up to date and that you have manual backups (charts and compass) in case of electronic failure. Check the weather forecast and plan for updates en route. Safety gear, including life jackets, flares, and a first aid kit, should be checked for completeness and functionality. Inform someone ashore of your plan and expected arrival time.

Departure: Seahaven Superyacht Marina
Your journey begins at the luxurious Seahaven Superyacht Marina. As you leave, pay close attention to the local marina traffic. The area can be bustling, especially during peak seasons.

Navigational Considerations:
Upon departure, keep an eye out for the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) markers. The ICW will be your primary guide south towards Loggerhead Marina - Hollywood Marina. The ICW is generally well-marked, but boaters should stay vigilant for changes in buoy positions and any temporary navigational aids, especially after storms.

Points of Interest & Shelter Bays:

  1. Port Everglades: As you cruise south, Port Everglades is not only a landmark but also a bustling hub for cruise ships and freighters. Stay clear of the shipping lanes and monitor VHF Channel 16 for any announcements or advisories from the Port Authority. This area is known for strong currents, so keep a steady hand on the helm.
  2. Dania Beach Ocean Park: Further south, consider a stop or sail-by Dania Beach. It's a beautiful spot for scenic views and a quick swim. However, if the weather turns, it provides minimal shelter, so it's more suitable for a fair-weather break.
  3. Lake Sylvia: For those seeking a tranquil anchorage in the case of sudden bad weather, Lake Sylvia offers a serene alternative. It's nestled within the Fort Lauderdale residential area, providing good protection from prevailing winds. Respect the local regulations and the privacy of waterfront properties.
  4. Hollywood Beach: Before you reach your destination, Hollywood Beach is worth a detour. Known for its vibrant boardwalk and family-friendly beaches, it's an excellent spot for relaxation and leisure.

Important Navigational Aids & Local Regulations:

  • Speed Restrictions: Throughout the ICW, be mindful of speed limits, which can vary. Pay special attention to manatee zones where speeds are significantly reduced to protect wildlife.
  • Bridges: There are several drawbridges between Seahaven Superyacht Marina and Loggerhead Marina - Hollywood Marina. Familiarize yourself with their operating schedules and VHF channels for communication.
  • Security Zones: Near government installations or large commercial ports, keep an eye out for marked security zones. Entry might be restricted, or specific rules may apply.

Arrival: Loggerhead Marina - Hollywood Marina
As you approach Loggerhead Marina - Hollywood Marina, prepare for docking by reducing speed and contacting the marina on the VHF channel for berthing instructions. The marina is well-equipped, offering a safe harbor and plenty of amenities.

Why This Route?
This voyage offers a blend of scenic beauty, navigational challenges for the keen sailor, and points of interest that make the trip enjoyable. It's particularly suited for leisure yachtsmen who appreciate the journey as much as the destination, ensuring a mix of relaxation, skill-testing, and engagement with the local maritime culture.

Safety Over Fun, But Still a Delight:
While this plan prioritizes safety - recommending shelter options and emphasizing adherence to local regulations and navigational practices - it also underscores the unique pleasures of boating in these waters. Whether it's the thrill of navigating busy port areas or the joy of discovering tranquil spots and engaging local points of interest, there's something in this journey for every kind of boater, making it an adventure that's as safe as it is unforgettable.
