Ep. 4. Sailing Solo on a Bristol 32 - De Soto Point Anchorage, Bradenton, Florida. Gulf of Mexico.

"An Epic Journey into the New World In May 1539, Conquistador Hernando de Soto’s army of soldiers, hired mercenaries, craftsmen, and clergy made landfall in Tampa Bay. They were met with fierce resistance of indigenous people protecting their homelands. De Soto’s quest for glory and gold would be a four year, four thousand mile odyssey of intrigue, warfare, disease, and discovery that would form the history of the United States" https://www.nps.gov/deso/index.htm “The Expedition to La Florida. De Soto sent guides ahead to locate and chart a course for his army. The expedition set sail for Florida on the 18th of May 1539, with five large vessels and four smaller ones. On these vessels were de Soto's army as well as priests, women, horses, mules, war dogs, and pigs. On May 25th, they made landfall in the Tampa Bay area. De Soto's expedition initially landed at Piney Point. They made camp at Uzita, which was a native village on the northern shore of the Little Manatee River.” https://fcit.usf.edu/florida/lessons/de_so... “Following the successful conquest of the Inca Empire, De Soto returned to Spain in 1536 and sought an audience with the emperor to request permission to become governor of Quito. Since the Spanish Crown would take a year to grant his request, De Soto took advantage of his time in Spain to marry Isabel de Bobadilla, the daughter of his Panama expedition partner, Pedrarias Davila. In the same year, he became a member of the Spanish Order of Santiago, and by 1537, he reached an agreement with Carlos I of Spain to conquer Florida. Although the Spanish Crown did not grant his original petition to become governor of Quito, the emperor agreed to make De Soto the governor of Cuba if he returned victorious from his expedition through Florida. In 1539, two years after their departure from Spain, De Soto and his crew landed on the west coast of Florida in the area historians believe is the location of present day Tampa.” https://www.nps.gov/articles/desoto.htm#:~....
