95 mile cruise overnight to Marathon Florida outside passage in Atlantic Ocean

We left Miami Florida at 6pm and arrived in Marathon the next day around 11:30 AM. Perfect weather window appeared so the planned itinerary was altered slightly. Molly and I made it outside Angelfish Creek around midnight, a beautiful, remote and shallow inlet just north of Key Largo, and proceeded South West on a close reach / beam reach overnight. We averaged 6 knots for that Atlantic Ocean stretch with 2-3 foot seas building to 4 ft seas by mid day in 13-20 knot breeze. Had the mainsail reefed and the Genoa furled in partially for the majority of the passage.

Smooth sailing aside from one close call with a Hawk channel green marker which surprised me as I sailed right by it unknowingly. Lesson learned to keep your eyes out for all known obstacles when sailing overnight.
