We're Off!

05 March 2018

On Monday we were at the office at 8a when it opened, turned in our clubhouse keys, settled up our bill, then cast off the lines. It was a beautiful day, although not the warmest. We headed south to Fernandina Beach. The birds in the marsh across from the marina were there to wish us a farewell. The second shot is looking back at the marina.



We were able to use the routes I had programmed for the trip up the coast by just reversing them, which made the amount of time I had spend putting them together a little more worth it. On the way there were various signs of the past hurricane season. The bulldozer at left of the picture below was just crushing up these boats for the scrapyard.


We arrived at Fernandina Beach about an hour earlier than we expected because the currents were working for us almost the whole day, pretty much the opposite of our experience on the way up. This way was better. We had dinner at the Salty Pelican again, then crashed hard. Travel days on the boat are are long days even if they are good.
