To Jekyll Island

The water depths were a lot different today in that much of the water we traversed was 40 to 60 foot of depth.   There were two places where our route took us out in the Atlantic for 1/2 hour or so.  It was pretty calm with 2 or 3 ft swells.   This travel day was only a little over 3 hours.  The big activity on Jekyll island is biking the great network of trails.  Jayne and I had done just that about 5 years ago when we visited the island so we used much of our time to do some house keeping chores such as washing the boat and our clothes and fixing a few things.   We did meet some really nice people
The marina had more to offer than any so far:  A courtesy car; a pool; hot tub; free laundry; and free bicycles.

I had a fight with the GPS tonight; it kept me up a little late but I won!!

Good night!
Tomorrow we anchor out in a secluded area in back of an island ( a little spooky? thats OK Jayne is there to protect me!
