The SE 17th Street Causeway Bridge looking south toward Port Everglades in

Looking at the SE 17th Street Causeway Bridge at night,
over the bow of a mega-yacht docked at Pier 66.

With a Clearance of 55 FT above MHW when closed,
this bridge only opens on the hour and half hour for Tall Ships,
if you contact the bridge tender with your VHF Radio.
Not all of the bridges have this much clearance.
You better have a VHF Radio and know how to use it to contact
the many bridge tenders in this area. If you miss their scheduled
opening times, you will have to wait for the next scheduled time.

one for Hamburgers, and the other for Sausages.

Let the shopping begin....
