You are not going to find day hops along the Florida coast for your vessel. From Savanna the next inlet is St. Mary's Georgia. The next inlet south you can use will be Port Canaveral, and from there probably Lake Worth. Your mast will be a problem and some inlets you can use will have bridges you can not transit once inside and no place to anchor. You need to get good charts for the area with bridge clearances on the ICW. Many inlets along that coast look good but in reality are too shallow to enter.
