The boat slips away from Guanabanas as the sky shifts toward gold, the Intracoastal whispering against the hull and the captain's voice folding history into the hush. Mansions drift by like stage sets — golf legends, actors, and sports stars framed against mangroves — while ospreys ride the thermals overhead and the water dares you to look closer.
