We wanted to let everyone know where we are. The boat was hauled on Monday in St. Augustine, FL. This was after 8 days in Fernandina Beach waiting for Sandy to officially leave. Besides some barnacles on the metal, no problems seen. We have hauled for the bottom paint to be updated, drop the pitch back one notch on the prop, and take care of properly preparing and painting the underwater metals for the saltwater.
Since we don't plan to go back to the boat until after the holidays, we will leave it ashore until after Christmas. Then we plan to head to the Keys for the rest of winter.
We will be putting Yumsuch on the internet marketplace while we cruise. Pass the word to anyone you know.
Another beautiful sunset on at one of our many anchorages we visited on the way down through Georgia. I believe we are anchored at Lanier Island near Brunswick, GA
Submarine base near Cumberland Island, GA.
Cumberland Island Anchorage. This was two days before Sandy.
Saw our first air boat right after we crossed over into FL.
Ever vigilant Yammy finally caught a dolphin jumping. This was at our dock at St. Augustine.
"The ocean has always been a salve to my soul... the best thing for a cut or abrasin was to go swimming in salt water. Later down the road of life, I made the discovery that salt water was also good for the mental abrasions one inevitably acquires on land". Jimmy Buffett (NN)
