This is our third gray day, we haven't seen the sun since Monday! When we left Jekyll Island we had a fair current, that is a good thing. This leg has us going out the Jekyll Sound inlet to get around Horseshoe Shoal, they obviously stole the name from Nantucket Sound. It is the only place on the ICW where you have to go outside, it was a little rough. You then enter the Cumberland River. Well you can't have a fair tide going out and going in, so we fought the current almost all day. We were going 5kn through the water but only 2.5kn over the ground, slow go! If the first picture loaded it would be of the lighthouse at the entrance to Cumberland River. At the head of the Cumberland river it dumps into the Cumberland Sound where the Kings Bay Navy sub base is, only saw one Sub. Just before the inlet the ICW hooks off to the right and into Florida. Sorry no pictures today, they just would not load.
