The start of the 7th Leg of the Volvo Ocean Race in Boston.

We didn’t get going until; 8:55 , and really didn’t know where we were heading, just thought we would go until we found a good anchorage. So off we went past Amelia Island, and soon we were approaching the St. John’s River, which heads down into Jacksonville. We knew we wanted to get south to St. Augustine so we just headed straight across the St. John’s River and kept heading south.

These photographs were taken on a sailing charter from St. Lucia to Grenada and back, in the summer of 2001.
