| The fairway between the outside docks and the next docks towards land has been increased in width quite a lot |
We went a little further than we had wanted today and made it 52 NM to Fernandina. We had wanted to stay there two days but the new policy is to pay for dockage upfront when you make the reservations. As I understood the cancellation policy when explained over the phone, you had to cancel 48 hours in advance to get your money back. So if I had a mechanical problem or the weather drastically changed and I couldn't get there in time, I was out the dockage fee and at $2.50/ft, it's not small change.

| The dinghy docks were especially nice and right next to a park for walking your dog |
With that, I decided not to make reservations and instead reserve a dock at Jekyll Island Marina which has a cancellation policy with no advanced notice even though they use DOCKWA, a company I'm not a fan of. We've never been there so we're looking forward to exploring the island.

| A view south on the dinghy dock, there's a similar view northward, lots of space |
We tentatively expect to stay there through Saturday night when thunderstorms and heavy rain is due to come through. If so, we would start north again on Sunday.
