Back in September along the coast of New Jersey we met Jock from Port Dover on his self built catamaran. We caught up to each other a number of times along the way and the last we had heard was when we left St. Augustine in December he was radioing into the marina to arrive here. I guess it has been good to him because he has stayed the whole season and we met up with him here again today. It is a very good spot and I can see why it would be worth spending a long time here.
It is also a good spot to get a few things done – like haircuts! The picture shows Christopher going through his transformation from one of the Beatles to an army personnel! It will be more comfortable and manageable during the hot months ahead.
Once again we met up with Chris and Divya on Maggie M for a final dinner ( declared as the next part of celebrating Shirley’s birthday!) and jam session. Tomorrow they head off shore for a 500 mile passage out in the ocean up to Beaufort NC.
After fueling and watering up Tiffany Rose we changed our anchoring spot to be on the north side of the Bridge of Lions in order to be able to slip out first thing in the morning. From our new spot we took the dinghy out to explore and landed on a beautiful intermittent island – it is mostly submerged at high tide – covered with oyster shells and nice firm sand. It was a great spot for Christopher to be free from us and go wandering on his own. That night we were treated to the most spectacular fireworks display we’ve ever seen. No idea what it was celebrating but it blew our socks off!
