A little further than A DAY trip....conch fritters!!!!
Your in gewberville
When I saw the first pic I was thinking KW, but the boat name didn't register.
I lived at mm 61 for 10 years, applied for my SS benefits in KW.
It was much easier to get to Cay Sal than the Tortugas from where I lived, so I never made it there.
Back in the day, I made it to Cay Sal, on a scuba diving trip, spent the night = was an awesome trip .....................Quote:

Great trip. The snorkeling was awesome particularly by the many pier piling at the 2 abandoned coal ship docks. If you can go the trip is well worth it. The fort was neat too. They got a gun, not a cannon cause its rifled, that shoots a 300 lb projectile. It's called a parrot gun. They also had a furnace to create "hot shot". The furnace was used to create red hot cannon balls which would cause much more damage when they hit their targets. Now we know where the term hot shot comes from, I think!
Anyone know what a loophole is, in reference to a fort?

The original meaning of loophole was a long narrow window in the wall of a castle, through which arrows could be fired against attackers. It acquired its modern meaning in the late 17th century.
Yep. They had them between the outside door and the second door at the one and only entrance to the fort. They were used in the event the outside door was breeched, but they didn't use arrows.
