CT to FL Day 29
Fernandina Beach, FL Pine Island Anchorage, FL
We left Fernandina Beach Marina late morning at 1100... Lily and Herman needed a bath and they don't like baths underway... GRIN.

Todays plan was to travel about 6 hours to wherever that took us... we plan to stop and visit friends in Palm Coast, FL that is just over 12 hours south for Fernandina Beach... not enough daylight to do 12 hour days and do not like traveling on the ICW at night so we will split it into too relatively short 6 hour days.

After passing through Jacksonville area... our 6 hour day was going to take us to about 12 miles north of Saint Augustine, FL to an anchorage named Pine Island South in Active Captain. When we arrive there were already 4 bother boats anchored here... and two very familiar ones.

We arrived to the our destination for the night Pine Island Anchorage at 1715. Our location for night N30°03.153',W081°21.755'. We traveled today for 6.25 hours covering 43.0 nautical miles averaging 6.9 knots.

Been two days since we anchored and we find ourselves anchored with the two same boats we were anchored with 2 days ago... BOW-TO_STERN and NORTHERN STAR... first time we anchored with BOW TO STERN was in Carolina Beach, NC... so fun to keep seeing the same boats all headed south. Photo of them anchored behind us and two sailboats behind them.
