FL to CT Day 10
Jekyll Island, GA to Brunswick, GA
Had a little late night boat traffic I was no expecting... INDEPENDENCE American Cruise Lines passed by around 2230... it's spotlight hit us momentarily and lit the inside of the boat up like it was daylight.

Very short day today going to Brunswick Landing Marina for fuel... left at 0730 with a nice high tide that made Jekyll Creek a joy... normally, we transit it at a low tide and barely scrape through... was very nice this morning with 12' plus depths.

We turned off the ICW and headed up toward Brunswick and passed under the Sidney Lanier suspension bridge... very impressive sight.

Turning into the canal that heads up to the marina we discovered where the INDEPENDENCE had cruised to last night. It was tied up just south of the marina... passengers getting off and loading onto a bus... for a tour of town I suppose. Very neat sailing vessel tied up behind it.

We arrived to our the Brunswick Landing Fuel dock at 0900 and fed SAILS... she was very hungry taking on almost 1100 gallons of diesel. She really lists as you fuel up one tank at time... 540 gallons in the port tank and we must of been listing 10-15 degrees.

At 1030 fueling was complete and we moved to the next dock and tied up to the T-Head. Our location for the night N31°06.749', W081°30.194'. We traveled today for 11 hours and 30 minutes covering 80.4 nautical miles averaging 7.0 knots.
