Still at Cumberland Island. Still messing with infrared. And getting hammered, drilled and bitten by bugs. We got more welts than a paint ball contestant who forgot his protective gear.

As for the Atlantic season the […]
Back to Civilization
We got an early start so that hopefully we would get a good distance down Johnstone Strait before the predicted winds started. What a nice surprise we had. We went the entire way to Port McNeil, 60.5 miles, with the Strait being like a mill pond. We…
