Day 38, Wednesday, May 21, 2008

The morning forcast calls for the winds to be up all day with scattered thunder storms. We elect to ride it out on the mooring ball another day. We dinghied in to the marina around noon to settle up, to do lunch and a walkabout. It’s a nice little town with the usual antique shops, tourist traps and restaurants. We had a very enjoyable lunch at a little open air cafe. 

It was a pleasant afternoon walking back to the marina. Getting back to the boat however was a really “wet” experience.  The wind and the Amelia River tidal current were opposing making the mooring field choppy as heck. Back at the boat we dried out and then planned the next days run and prepped the boat for departure.

Location: Fernandina Beach moorings at MM 717. Another no travel day.
