Day 9 - Brunswick GA - Florida
28:01.9N
80:26.6W
The
tides are with us on this passage - once again we can make
a mid-day start for high tide. So, time for further exploring on the
cape - this time with the bike and running - to Jetty Park - an RV/recreational
point on the beach - a nice 5 mile exercise. Pity we couldn't get into the park
(we had chosen the wrong roadway) but nevertheless a pleasant stop by the canal
and refreshments before biking and running back along the "Space Coast"
past the motor boat marina stacking warehouses. Time to cast-off and set
sail again heading south. A busy exit - avoiding dredging vessels, barges on tow
and a research vessel following closely behind us! The afternoon southerly
breeze making progress difficult, eventually dropping the sails and motoring
into the evening. Sundowners and sunsets herald the night's arrival. |
