Sunbury Crab Marina and Redbird Creek anchorage


 We left the hustle and bustle of Jekyll Island Sunday morning. It seems to me people are still in the hurry up mood even on vacation. The 25mph speed limit was mostly ignored although the crosswalk laws were obeyed. We traveled about 70 miles to the docks at Sunbury Crab Co. We had an enjoyable meal, seafood sample platter and good conversations with the owners.            


Monday we anchored out in Redbird Creek. We were alone except for an occasional flyby of military helicopters. I missed the fly by of the Apache choppers but caught the CH46. I actually flew in one 46 years ago. Still a workhorse after all these years.

Mission Accomplished  !!!!!!! BAR-B-Q crossed her  wake Saturday May 21st, 2022 after leaving Riverside Marina  May 17th, 2021. What a life!!!! So many friendly people to share tall tales and adventures  with. What a boating experience.  We traveled about 7000 miles on our loop. We did side trips, one that put through the SOO LOCK into Lake Superior. Our destination was Whitefish Point. There are docks protected by a breakwall, but no power or water. That's the reason we are self-sufficient. Another side trip was up to Chattanooga,  TN. The last major side trip was the St John's River through "Old Florida". Smaller trip Cape Lookout to Ocracoke Island via Atlantic Ocean. A total of 79 lockages and countless bridge openings were made. I gained in experience and problem solving. I offered my friendship to boaters and especially other loopers. Many times accepted,  sometimes denied and that's fine. Can't please everyone! I will be heading north in a few weeks. La

On My Way Again

U I'm  It was Saturday morning when I left Riverside Marina. I rode the current down the river, pausing at Pea Island, while waiting for the current to change.  I spent the night in the Cohansey River. Next morning,  still flowing with the current, traveled to Cape May,  got fuel, rested a bit, then headed for Sandy Hook. The sun was setting when I passed Atlantic City. It would be well pass sunrise when I stopped,anchored at Sandy Hook. I slept awhile and continued North into New York Harbor. All was well until it wasn't. My fuel problem reappeared.  I was restricted to 5mph. New York Harbor is busy normally, but this was the 4th of July.  I thought about stopping to watch the fireworks,  just fot a split second . The Cluster Muster on the water after the show would be way too stressful.  I anchored just north of the GW Bridge. I spent two nights at anchor, spending most of my time "polishing the fuel". It was a great experience, anchored across the river from Spuyte

Always Changes

 I tried to get Parks Canada to give the discount they offered before April. The season pass is $700 for locks and mooring for the size of my boat without the discount. They said NO so I said see you next year. It's the principle of the matter. If I bought the pass early, Canada could be closed to Americans and I would have paid for nothing. So I'll head out the end of June destination unknown. Up the Erie Canal then down the Chesapeake Bay to who knows where. What a Life!!!
