Day 96

 
 

Thursday - Because of our exposure to south and west winds, we moved our anchorage north about 15 miles. On the way, we took some pictures of the nuclear submarine degussing facility and a submarine. This sub was "hidden" from view until 2 large Coast Guard ships move out as we passed. The small CG boats in the photo were to excort the sub out to sea. No boats are allowed to be within 100 yards of the channel as the sub leaves. Some vessels had to turn around and head south until it passed them.
We are now anchored on the north side of Cumberland Island in creek, off Brickhill River, to shelter us from waves amd wind. No other boats here, yet. The entrance to this River was silted over. I needed two attempts to get pass the entrance. It looked like only 3 feet of water at max. low tide. I need 3.5 feet so I pushed .5 feet of silt for 100 feet. Barbara is so bored, that besides reading alot, she now has started quilting. Could clean but ......... ! I have to do everything. Only kidding. !
