Walked over to the post office in the morning and then took off. The wind was blowing pretty hard, so it was difficult getting away from the dock. Roy had me stand on the stern with the boathook and catch a line, so I could pull the stern of the boat around. That part was easy; the hard part was getting the pole loose. The boat was moving, the hook was over the line, and I had a bunch of shrouds in my way when I tried to walk forward. I tried my best to get the hook off the line but couldn't, so Roy ran out and grabbed the hook.
It was a nice day, so we headed out into the ocean instead of going down the ICW. Will be a lot faster.
We had planned on going to Charleston today, but we got off to a late start and would have arrived in Charleston after dark, so we decided to keep going to Savannah. First overnighter we'd done in a long time.
