The Turtle Road Trip Is Over! Ep. 15

HOORAY! THE TURTLE ROAD TRIP IS OVER! Once we got to our friend's house in South Carolina the truck broke down....again.... It took a few days at a local mechanic shop to get the fuel pump replaced, and it ended up costing us $900 dollars! We couldn't believe how expensive it was here on the East Coast to get fixed! Randall would have done the project himself, for about $145, but he didn't have a good place to work and he didn't want to get his friends driveway dirty with truck grease. Oh well that is life, we move on and we choose to be happy! This was our first time in South Carolina and we loved seeing all the sights! We were able to visit friends that we haven't seen in years and spend some time at the beach! We got very anxious to get our boat to Florida so we could set sail on our trip to the Bahamas! Once we left South Carolina, it took about a day and a half of driving before we got to Fort Pierce, Florida. Along the way we had to get our 3 day old rim replaced at a Discount Tire, but the closet facility was 6 hours south, back in Florida. We crossed our fingers and hoped that we would make it there without blowing any more tires! That night we slept at a REALLY FANCY rest area in Florida! We say fancy, because compared to every other rest stop we stayed at across the country this one was by far the cleanest, biggest, and well secured. We were blown away by how much pride the state of Florida has in it's roads and public facilities. The next day we arrived at the marina! As we drove into the boat yard, it was AMAZING to see all the masts of the other sailboats! We couldn't believe that we are actually here! We have worked so hard to get here and have had nothing but bad luck the whole way! Tomorrow we are planning on launching Turtle and getting ready to leave for the Bahamas! We are really hoping this is the end of our bad luck and the beginning of our EPIC SAILING ADVENTURE !!! ********************************************************************** THANK YOU for watching our videos and for SUBSCRIBING to our YouTube channel!
