We left Golden Isles Marina around 9:15. It was an eventful day for us. We bumped aground in a tricky area around Jekyll Island where you have to go out to the entrance of the ocean and come around to the back side of the island. I was below when we bumped and it knocked me off my socks. Due to Captain's Joe's quick response we quickly rebounded and got back on track. Note - just because Shrimp boats are in shallow water - doesn't mean that's where your vessel should be. Ha Ha. The weather was blustery and cool. We crossed St. John's River and saw some of the largest boats we have ever seen. I took a great picture of one in dry dock. We arrived at Palm Cove Marina in Jacksonville, Florida around 5:00 pm.
We missed a marker coming into the marina and scrubbed again. The greatest pro about this day was the majority of the time we were running with the wind and current which gave us better fuel economy and faster speed. Oh well Moma said there would be days like this Mama said, Mama said.
We ate at Restaurant 32 at the marina that night. We highly recommend this eatery. It was delicious. We had grilled Salmon with risotto rice and apple smoked port medallions with poached Shrimp. There is a true Chef in that kitchen.
When we got back to the boat, we tried to repair our air conditioner, which had sucked up debris through the raw water intake. Thank goodness for fans.

Hi Joey and Rhonda from Terri, Christopher and Grandma Helen in San Diego, CA. Sounds like your trip has been a blast so far! Really enjoyed the pics! We hope you have many more days of happy boating! It really sounds like a dream come true! Hope your weather gets warmer as you go further south. We are having a wonderful time visiting with Christoper in San Diego. Sounds like our weather has been better than your weather so far! Lots of sun, not a cloud in the sky and temps in the mid to upper 80's everyday! San Diego is beautiful!
Grandma and I have done alot of shopping in the past few days, trying to give Christopher's "man cave" a home-y touch!
Hope to talk to you soon!
Happy Boating! Terri
