On Sunday, June 5, Don, Holly and Lena Hurley and Steve and Kris Sydow went with us to fuel up and move the boat near the James Island Yacht Club in anticipation of a Tuesday departure on the outgoing tide. The last couple of days were filled with visiting and last minute shoppping of forgotten items. The weather still looked good on Tuesday for a nice window to sail up the gulfstream at least as far as Hatteras. Family came to see us off and we finally got underway about 5 pm after raising, deflating and securing the dinghy.
The Rio Luna is a 43' ketch carrying a permanent crew of 4: Tracy, Michael, Justin and Josephine. The Rio Luna's home port is Charleston, SC.
