Well here we go, chasing the beautiful sunshine to the ocean. woke up to a very cold morning, breakfast of pancakes and syrup with OJ. Sleeping great on boat with two quilts two blankets and a comforter. The scenery has been beautiful and cold. We passed another sailboat about our size heading North and loaded down.  We are traveling at 7.5 mph average (11.25 knots) taking all day to get to Bellefonte plant in Alabama and anchoring out in river after dark. Due to no slews to anchor out in. Piloting a boat with just GPS is a whole new experience, but exciting. We have found out that it gets dark faster than we expected.
