We were up early--7AM but it is still dark then. Peter fixed coffee, Jane gave the deck 1 last scrub, and we took care of Pretzel. By 8PM we dropped our lines and pushed off the dock. Kinvara floats again!! It was cloudy and chilly so we had to wear jeans. They really feel uncomfortable! We haven't had them on since last Jan. The sail North on the St John's River was easy but the wind was on our nose so no sails went up...yet.
After going under I95 bridge and through a train bridge we pulled onto a free dock at Jacksonville Landing. It's a mall and restaurant area. There is free tie up for 72 hours. No electricity or water but it's a fun place to be. Fairly empty this time of year and especially today. This weekend was a huge Jaguars football game and the boats were rafted 5 deep at this dock. Party central!!
Notice the sign in the upper left corner and you'll see where we sit along the dock!!
