Cruising my 1995 Catalina 42 MK II sailboat with my cat XO, the good, the bad, and the ugly of the open ocean world cruising life.

In St. Augustine
Had a very interesting transit from Miami to St. Augustine. The first part of the trip was so benign that I had to run the engine at idle to keep Reboot pointed in the right direction. Then, just about 5 miles from St. Augustine I got one of those Florida/Georgia thunderboomers. Of course the jib jammed and the main sail didn't come down right so it was one of those days. Then the thunderstorm passed and I got into St. Augusitine. I am now sitting on a mooring ball. I am going down to see Bill (KI4MMZ) and then out to dinner with Ed and Claudia.
