Fernandina Beach > Wahoo River > Thunderbolt

After two electricians worked on Virginia Dare (Port Canaveral and Fernandina Beach), we are still plagued by a baffling mystery <sigh>  We're now tucked into Hinckley Yacht Services in Thunderbolt, Georgia, where an electrician greeted us when we arrived late yesterday afternoon.

Scenes from the last few days:

This poor guy is missing his left rear leg.  After watching him for an hour, I took him to the bushes near the marina (yes, that is a drop of bug poo by his leg).

After the second round of electricians fixed our issue, we celebrated.  Turns out, we jumped the gun :(  Problem not yet solved.

Motoring north in flat calm

As we creep north at 7 kts, planes zip past :)

David estimates this bonito weighed 15 pounds.  It put up quite a fight before being released back to the ocean.

Storms to our south

HUNDREDS of these jellyfish were bobbing in the ocean.  We saw lots of turtles here, too.  As we learned at the Sea Turtle Center in Florida, turtles love to eat jellyfish.

And rays must like them, too!

And away he goes!

Anchored in the very peaceful Wahoo River on Wednesday night.  Storms skirted us.

Heading north on Thursday in the ICW.  The tide prevented us from getting back to the ocean.

Brackish water of the ICW -- mixture of salt and fresh water.  The dolphins seem to love it.

We skirted the storms on Thursday as well!

Rain off our stern in the Isle of Hope, GA.
