    So pleased to see you finally got there. Remember .. the voyage is the adventure, not the destination. It was 49 years ago to the day when I set sail on the voyage to England on a big ship. She was the SS Australis, formerly the SS America. Take care and enjoy the sunrises and sunsets, the best in the world at sea. Aroha from New Zealand. 🥰

    Fun Fact: All that shallow water around the river channel was the beach 10-15,000 years ago when sea level was much lower & glaciers were beginning to recede. People were living on the beach & underwater archeologists are finding remnants, i.e. Clovis Point tools, etc. As seal levels rose, they kept moving inland. It was shown on a PBS documentary a couple weeks ago.

    So glad you are on your great adventure way! We started ours in August, 23, from Lake Michigan. Went east through the Erie Canal and down to Florida. Then to the Bahamas and back to Florida.
    When I first started cruising in 2008, after weekend sailing since 1979, I met an elderly couple, that’s me now, while at anchor at south Manitou Island in Lake Michigan. They shared with us that they had sailed everywhere in the world and there was no better cruising grounds in the world than right here. Well, I had to have my own experience, and I did. Once we entered the intracostal waterway at Norfolk it was just work. They call it “the ditch” for a reason.
    I wouldn’t trade this experience for anything. The Bahamas were awesome, but challenging. It truly is a “third world country”.
    Now, we are back in Florida and trading our boat for a motor home to tour the USA.
    We’ll spend summer of ‘25 in Michigan and sail Lake Michigan…….the best sailing grounds in the world!

    Congrats on getting out of the river and heading south. Couldn't tell but you should have red lights in cockpit and headgear for night vision. Also does your Nav screen and tablet have a night mode. Didn't matter much with full moon, but will with less light- does make for red video however. If you think you might be prone to seasickness, get the meds or patches or consider electronic rechargeable battery seaband that start at $80 on Amaz.

    • @SailingLiberty
      @SailingLiberty  8 дней назад +2

      That was a total sh*tshow. There is a big concrete bolder in the middle of the channel. After hurricanes they don’t replace channel markers properly and we ran on the top of it. We did not scout until this marker funny enough because it seemed to be out of danger zone. Should have scouted whole channel. They attached the channel marker buoy outside of it. It was scarier than dangerously close being blown up in marina fire.
      We are in 60s and end of the week should be 70 F.
      Ted will dive tomorrow to check it out.

BTW there are 2 types of Captains, those who admit to having run aground, and there are liars L) Stay safe

    • @SailingLiberty
      @SailingLiberty  9 дней назад +3

      Navigation icon was slow to change to the new direction, also we had a weather helm, so we constantly had to fight it not to go south/ south east. Sometimes when I filmed, I could not hold the camera and fight the helm, so boat drifted a bit and then we were correcting after that immediately.
      We were in the middle of the channel when we ran into that concrete block. Buoy was outside the channel . After hurricanes, channel is very badly marked.
