Georgia and Florida Bound

Over the last three weeks we have had several wonderful visits from many friends and family. One thing this trip has taught us is the incredible importance of spending time with loved ones. The four of us have enjoyed the company of everyone who came to visit and miss them lots.
We installed a new water pump on the engine in Charleston, SC and the Perkins 4.108 seems to be running better than ever. Thanks to Poppa Jack for all his running around helping us get parts.
We have provisioned with food and water and have taken as much fuel aboard as we can.
We are ready for the next chapter of this trip. We are headed for Florida.
Georgia has a relatively short coastline of only 140 miles. With the weather getting colder we are anxious to get to warmer temperatures.
Today's run was about 72 miles and we are now deep in Georgia. Rather amazing in a sailboat. We caught the tides, current and winds all right and moved along, often above 8 knots.
Several more runs like today and we will be in Jacksonville FLA.
Looking forward to warmer temperatures and sandy beaches.
