Sea Islands 2024 track

 Here's the sailing track from Charleston SC to Palatka FL.  An excellent trip.  A little cooler than my past trips down there.  The good thing about that is the cool air comes from north winds and those north winds are perfect for sailing down the ICW.  A total of 19 days on the water, 15 of those days were sailing days.  The others were spent visiting Webb in Hilton Head, waiting out too much wind and waiting out no wind.  SPARTINA performed well.  The new jib was excellent.  The cold weather gear - merino wool thermals, a new merino wool hoodie, wool socks and drysuit - proved to be very important on this trip.  I have had colder individual days on other trips, usually the fall trip on Chesapeake Bay, but overall this was the chilliest sail I have made.  The cold weather gear made it both possible and enjoyable.
