We’re on our way without delay…Woot!! Excited but nervous about whether the boat was in fact, fixed. Per protocol, our Ripple friends left first and seemed to take the sun with them. Our route was mostly inside, narrow winding waterways…
On our way to Charleston, SC. The day started with light winds, grey and sometimes threatening skies. As we closed in on Charleston the clouds gave way to blue skies, but the winds increased and on some stretches, so did…
Another excellent day on the water and our 3rd state, South Carolina! We know we should slow down! Most Loopers spend a couple of nights at each stop. We do this rarely. Plus, there are so many cool places we’re…
Morning at the Sepalo anchorage was beautiful. Ripple was the first to lift the hook, of course. The forecasters were signaling a fairly light southwest wind which is ideal for zipping out a pass and spending some time in the…
Our day began with a wave to Team Ripple as they departed Fernandina. They always get rolling before we do. Both boats are headed to a quiet anchorage, a favorite of Don and Robbin’s, in a small creek (Duplin River)…
After two pleasant days in St. Augustine, we head north to Fernandina which is a 4.5 hour ride and yes, we’re still in Florida! It was a nice travel day. There were miles and miles of canals with beautiful homes,…
We’re still moving up the east coast…who knew Florida was so big!! Many years ago we went to St. Augustine by car and loved it. We’re excited for another visit. There are a lot of marina and mooring ball options.…
Today’s travel was beautiful. No navigation or boat issues and the weather gods gave us sun and very little wind….so today she favored the power boats 😉 A good day for a 7 hour journey – a little longer than…
Shortest day yet! We lollygagged our way to a nearby anchorage to experience a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch. We were hoping for an evening launch but didn’t get that lucky. However, it was spectacular! Watching a rocket launch live…
We departed Fort Pierce for Titusville around 10am. It was a typical day of cruising. Boats, bridges, birds and dolphins. Navigation was straight forward. Nothing tricky, nothing we hadn’t already experienced. I’m a lifetime boater and consider myself relatively competent…
