We left the dock at St. Marys at 1345 and motored in following winds of 20 knots plus. As we got to the entrance of the St Mary's River the Coast Guard asked us to hold position to allow a war ship to pass to sea. The picture show a nuclear sub under escort with helos overhead and Coast Guard rubber craft fore and aft with 60 mm attached. As we passed Kings Bay Naval base you could see the overhaul facilities for the Trident subs and a degaussing facility, to eliminate the magnetic signature from the subs, prior to going to sea. We arrived at Jekyll Island and tied to the dock since another cold front will pass thru tonight with T'storms. Aviator is anchored in Floyd Creek about 10 miles South and will join us morning. We both plan on staying here tomorrow and leaving on Sat. I hope to be at Steve's dock in Savannah on Sunday, possibly Sat night if we can go outside which I doubt. S
