Scot here. Quick lay over and it is time to go. If we stay 3 days we have to stay 4 as the weather looks bad on the 11th. This marina is too expensive for that and we need to get some miles under the belt. It is becoming pretty hard to find anchorages with…

Scott here. Late on this sorry! We decided on a short travel today. Initial plan was to go from Jacksonville to Jekyll Island, but we decided we wanted to stop at Cumberland Island. The joys of no super detailed plan, we can make changes as we see fit! Good thing this was a planned short…

Scott here. Day late, sorry! We had a decent run from Jacksonville to Cumberland Island. We anchored near Plum Orchard and were treated by wild horses. I’ll let Rita tell you about the island and our adventures there. Our anchorage was off the ICW on the Brickhill River. There was a dredge in front of…

Scott here. After a number of days in Jacksonville visiting family and celebrating Resurrection Day it is time to move on again. That is not a joke! Our initial plan was to stop at Jekyll Island, but we decided to have a shorter day and spend some time at Cumberland Island and maybe see some…

Scott here. WOW, did we have issues getting the anchor to set at our anchorage! We ended up having to reset the anchor at 11 pm on March 25. But, it finally set and our dragging stopped. Today we will travel from Vilano Beach (suburb of St. Augustine) and make it to Jacksonville and stay…

Scott and the crew departed Daytona for St. Augustine, encountering some challenges with shoaling and anchoring. They opted for an anchorage near Vilano Beach, where they struggled to set the anchor and ultimately had to reposition due to dragging. Despite unplanned deviations, they arrived ahead of schedule after a 56.7-mile journey.

Scott here. After a day of rest we are planning on leaving Daytona today. I think technically we are in Daytona Beach, but I will just stick with Daytona. The plan is to get to St. Augustine today. There is only one decent looking anchorage for a short stop about 1 1/2 hours south so…

Well, after a few days of traveling once again, I’m adjusting. I was not as eager as Scott to start moving again, but I knew we had to head a little north. Sometimes my spirit gets unsettled, and I forget to be still and find my joy and rest in God. I get very annoyed…

Scott here. Another low key travel day. In one spot the wind was pushing us around and of course this was an area that was very shallow outside the channel. We made it though! On the way we thought we would stop early and found an anchorage that looked good. Charts had getting into the…

Scott here. With the wind pushing us the travel day wasn’t bad at all. We only saw 4 or 5 other boats traveling in the opposite direction, so it made it even easier! I was 75% sure we were not going to move today after taking Jazzy to the park for a walk this morning.…
