Having spent the fall on the Chesapeake visiting with family and friends it was time to start south before the cold weather. We had a good time and made a few improvements to the boat that included a new plastic enclosure for the cockpit. This made our trip south allot more enjoyable. We traveled with our dear friends all the way to Thunderbolt GA where we parted. They continued south to the FL Keys and we left Red Swan in Thunderbolt so we could spend the holidays with family.
