St. Augustine to Palm Coast

Sun. Nov. 21/'10 Dropped mooring M22 9:20 after 3 days at historic St. Augustine. Met and travelled with 'Tybee Time' and 'Klabara'; we saw 'Riverdance' at fuel dock as we were leaving for Palm Coast (M 803) , about 26 miles along ICW.

T. Rainy day
We are two retired guys who have been good friends for 40 years and also partners in a 24' Shark and then a 29' Columbia 8.7. When Stu retired, he bought Georgia E with the intention of taking off and cruising to the Bahamas where we enjoyed our first of many bare- boat charters starting in the 1970`s. So here is our story.

The plan is to cross Lake Ontario, travel via Oswego and Erie canals to the Hudson River, down the East coast to Florida and then cross over to the northern Bahamas.
