Following six days on the hard at Huckins Marine on the Ortega River, Jacksonville, we are enjoying a day of rest at anchor at Fort Matanzas Inlet, just 15 miles south of St. Augustine FL.
Our visit to Huckins Marine was unexpected and necessitated by our insurance under writer, who required an out of water survey prior to our departure for the BVI's.
We took advantage of the haul out and had the bottom repainted with anti fouling paint. Not nice to be on the hard, but necessary.
We are now closely monitoring the progress of hurricane Richard, before we venture further south to home port for provisioning for the trip south.
Currently, it looks like we will be part of a 5 or 6 boat flotilla, departing south Florida for the Bahamas and points south.
