St. Augustine

Thursday, June 12 – There are strong currents in this anchorage and we wake up at 1:30am because the boat is in front of the anchor and it keeps hitting the rode. The anchor holds fine.

In the morning I replace the v-belt. The old one is stretched and dusty. I need to change the bracket so the pulleys are aligned properly.

We get underway and the engine is still running at 190°F. Today the current is helping us and we get to St. Augustine at 12:30pm and get on a mooring just before a big storm hits.

After we are tied to the mooring I clean the carburetor of the dinghy outboard.  I don’t get a chance to try it because we decide not to go ashore today. Tomorrow we will leave at 6:00am and try to get to Daytona Beach.
