Wow, is it cold down south!!!! Yesterday was a long day on the ICW with winds between 17-27 knots. We left Beaufort at 7:15 and had a real nasty ride for an hour in Port Royal Sound but we did Field's Cut, Skidaway narrows and Hell's Gate all at high tide. We covered 80 miles and put in at Kilkenny Marina so we could have heat on the boat. Today we left the dock at 6:30 and went out St. Catherine's Sound to Fernandina and took a mooring ball. We did 88 ocean miles instead of 103 ICW miles. Not much wind but the sun was out, the ocean was stunning, and we didn't have to worry about bridges or skinny water. Wish we could sail the ocean everyday!
