We leave our peaceful anchorage at 6:00 am. It’s a little foggy, but the sky is filled with stars.

We ease our way down the ICW, heading to the Ossabaw Sound. We got into some super skinny water- 1/2 ft. below the keel. UGH!! Capt. Robert picked our way through, and we are back in business.


We raise both sails, and off we go!


One of the markers is in a new position, and we never saw the preferred channel marker. There’s a big fog bank dead ahead of us. A little tricky getting out the inlet, but we are offshore at 7:15 am.

Seas are about 2-3 feet; winds NE at about 10 knots. NICE!! Time for coffee!! Ahhhhh!

The morning is uneventful( just the way I like it). Robert conducts business meetings ( love our WeBoost), and I read and listen to Podcasts.

Lunch is sausage and pepper “dogs”. After lunch, Robert spots a big turtle off our starboard side. Of course, I missed it!!

The afternoon goes by quickly, and we head into the St. Mary’s inlet at 5:15 pm.
Fernandina Beach area is still not back to normal since Hurricane Irma in 2017. Numerous boats sunken, marina still closed, and buildings without rooftops are seen.

We drop the hook at 6:15 pm. Time for a cocktail!!!!

Dinner is Dijon pork chops, corn, and peas. After dinner, we’ll look at weather and make decision about tomorrow’s plan.
