I don’t have a complete map for yesterday, but our goal was to make it from Sav, GA to Jacksonville, FL.
Mike’s former 1st Sgt, Jeff Harstine was a tremendous help while we were at the Thunderbolt Marina. It’s always good to see him.
On our way out of Thunderbolt, we were escorted by 2 dolphins. (Photos below)
We made it as far as the Golden Isles of GA, more specifically, St. Simon’s Island.
We are still having generator issues which means that during the day we have no air conditioning, which also results in no refrigerator surfing 😂 and most importantly, no water. 😭
We are fine hooked up to shore power at night , but when we aren’t, we just get creative.
We have parts on order that are supposed to be delivered to us in Brunswick, GA, as the fuel pumps for the generators are in-operative, even after somehow they were “just serviced.”
Jenn has called an old buddy from when she worked in Savannah who lives in the Brunswick area. He and his wife have graciously offered to bring us parts or anything else we need before we take off for St. Augustine.
Despite the mechanical difficulties, it’s been a wonderful day on the water. We’ve had 1-2 ft waves with a steady breeze, making being on the water an enjoyable experience.
