We are here Florida!!!!

We departed Charleston at first light Tuesday and sailed through the night on the Atlantic to St. John's inlet (near Jacksonville) where we joined the ICW again. The winds were out of the North/North East at 20 knots and even went down to 10 knots for a while.  What a treat not having the huge seas that we had on our last outside passage.  We even had the spinnaker up for the daylight hours.  After rejoining the ICW we sailed down to St. Augustine where we anchored out for the night.  Total of 205 nautical miles.  It would have taken us likely a week to get to St Augustine from Charleston via the ICW with all its twists and turns in Georgia.

Good news is the sun is shining again and it is about 20 degrees warmer. The weekend is supposed to be sunny and warmer as well.

The depth on this section of the ICW has been good so far and we have not come across any shoaling mentioned in the guide.
