The Atlantic gave us another great day on the ocean. Seas were smooth today, a little wind, and made this a 2 nap trip. We watched a shrimper feed the birds, many many birds! Hope the video will load for you to see. Ellie got to play “hide the goodie”. She gets bored so I show her the goodie, David keeps her occupied while I hide it somewhere on the boat. She loves that game! The excitement for the day was running across the remains of the GOLDEN RAY. In September 2019, a Hyundai owned cargo ship was delivering 4200 new vehicles to the Middle East when it capsized off the coast of Georgia, near St Simons Island. It took a year to devise the plan to scrap the shipwreck. A salvage crew welded 16 steel girders to the starboard side, each weighing 35-80 tons each. A lift was then attached so the ship could be cut apart and the now rusted cars could be removed. Today, there is about 366 feet left to be removed. Today’s run was from Fernandina FL to St Simons Island, Georgia, 39 miles, 6 hours, anchored out.

Jake will be 14 in a few months Harrison is 11 months rough but what a gorgeous shade of teal blue! We only saw a few dolphin but none came to play along side of the boat. I used the patch again and Ellie had her L-Theanine so we both tolerated the rocking' and rollin' better. When we only had 3 hours left to go to reach the marina, we were hailed by the Coast Guard. Oh, crimany, what did we do or not do??? We were asked to put the boat in neutral, did we have any weapons on board and may they come aboard for a safety check? We did as asked, they pulled up beside us and came aboard. ...
