Thunderbolt Marina

Calm at Crescent River

 

We leave at 7AM for a long run to Thunderbolt Marina just outside of Savannah. The No See Um’s chased us out of the calm anchorage, but as we got moving and exposed to the wind they disappeared. Another overcast, cloudy day. 

 

Not so calm now !

 We get to Thunderbolt at 4:30. I am disappointed to find out that the local Crispy Creme donut shop had closed and Thunderbolt no longer leaves a box of 6 donuts on your boat each morning, bummer.

Our friends Roger and Chrisy (who we met on our first trip to the Bahamas and are now on their power boat nearing the end of finishing the Great Loop) are in the next marina. We met them for dinner at Tubby’s Tankhouse restaurant which is halfway between both marinas. Had a great visit with them. They have not met Mark and Karen before, but have a bunch of mutual friends in the New Bern, NC area that are members of the Black Beard Sail Club and are all past Bahamas sailors.
