St. Marys, GA






First for us. We departed St Augustine dock at 0710 this morning and made the 0730 Bridge of Lions opening. We proceeded outside into the ocean and motored sailed with our red, white, and blue spinnaker up all the way to here and arrived at 1600. It was very smooth up until we turned into the breakwater entrance which extends about 1 1/2 miles into the ocean. As we put our port beam to the wind, the motion picked up somewhat, but not that bad. I decided to tie up to the dock here due to the wind and Nanc getting off and on easily. We will eat at Lang's tonight with Carleen, DK, and Joe. Joe has a friend picking him up tomorrow, and he is flying back to D'ville via RIC or ORF. I believe he has had a good time and learned a lot. He definitely has the bug to cruise when he retires in a couple months. It has been nice having an extra hand. S
