Left anchorage at 7:45 in NE wind at 20kts. Much nicer day, even with the wind. Winds picked up to 20-25 mid-day and persisted rest of day. WInd made crossing of St. Andrews Sound very challenging! Thought seriously about stopping but there were no real protected areas nearbyso i decided to continue on and suffered accordingly. Had very rough crossing of the inlet with waves breaking over the bow continually as I approached R32 from the SW then on the beam as I rounded and turned NW. Was seriously concerned about bouncing on the bottom! Very short period chop in 10’ of water at best. Below decks was a mess by the time I got into calm water! Arrived Brunswick Landing Marina at 4:15.

Stayed on mooring ball at St. Augustine. Went ashore daily. Went for one long group dinghy ride exploring the San Sebastian River. Had a fire drill of sorts when a friend came in from offshore on a cat with serious engine problems. Very strong S wind and current made it an all hands effort to get him on a ball! Had to use two dinghies as pusher tugs!!
