Sailing to the Bahamas

We’re continuing further south sailing offshore from North Carolina towards Florida and the Bahamas. We stop in a Jacksonville making the 20 mile trip up the river and under the bridges in town. We spend a few days at the welcoming Ortega Landing Marina, preparing the boat, repairing our fuel system and provisioning for the Bahamas.
