A Bridge Just High Enough



We had traveled up the St. Johns River to Jacksonville to meet with our friends Carl and Carrie, who were readying their new boat for cruising. On the way back downriver, we had to circle to avoid this cruise ship as it left the dock. It was kind of nerve-wracking to watch it approach and pass beneath this bridge, which just didn’t seem high enough. Obviously, the ship had already passed under it to reach the dock. Still, we waited with bated breath and kept our distance as it passed through.

Yacht Spotting: Sycara IV



We spotted this classically styled beauty on the dock at Fernandina Harbor Marina in Fernandina Beach, Florida. I love the long, low look. I couldn’t get full-length pictures because of the space limitations of the dock, so if you want to see details, as well as interior photos (no, we weren’t invited in L), look here. She’s on sale for only $37,000,000 (!!!).

The Doors of Charleston



Some beautiful doors that we encountered in our Charleston wandering.
