Anchored in Sapelo Island Anchorage, Georgia

We left Jekyll Island Marina at 8:40 a.m. after I took a nice, hot shower at the bath house.

I made coffee, grilled cinnamon raisin bagels for a quick breakfast before we got into rough water. We had some fruit with it.

We went through Jekyll Creek into St. Simons Sound, then Mackay River, Buttermilk Sound, Altamaha River, North River to Duplin River. Winds were 22-25 knots all day. We had the main sail reefed for a little while, but pulled it in before going through the fixed bridge. Then the wind was in our faces most of the day.

The Duplin River anchorage is right off Doboy Sound near the Sapelo Island ferry dock.

We went past the American Spirit cruise ship, which is anchored right near us.

It was Patti's turn to cook. Spaghetti and meatballs, salad and garlic bread. Chocolate pudding for dessert. Delicious.





We came back to our boat and saw this beautiful sunset. OK, so it isn't set yet. But it was so pretty that I couldn't wait to take the shot.

Tomorrow: Thunderbolt.
