Sept 18: We are over the hump!
20 miles from open ocean!
It’s 25+ miles by way of the waterway to get to Mayport
The Fairfax-Lakeshore area of Jacksonville FL on the Ortega River is even more protected!
“Lakeshore” (aka Fairfax on some maps) on the Ortega River.
Our “hurricane hole”
Plus, our Slip C-103, is buried deep within the marina, giving us even more protection!
Tall pilings and concrete floating docks should handle most any conditions Mother Nature can deliver here.

The normal rise ‘n’ fall of the tide here is only 18”.

So … in all, we are stacking the deck in our favor with regards to safe harboring in Florida.
