Last of NC Leg

10/26/2017

0 Comments

 
Current Position: Longitude 77.35.724W Latitude 33.55.328N (South Harbour Village Marina (ICW MM 311, just past Cape Fear Inlet)).
Miles travelled: 40
Weather: Sunny, breezy, chilly, high 50s
Highlights: Pulled up anchor at 7:30, and had chilly day motor sailing last NC leg, including the Cape Fear River. Decided a marina would be best choice tonight - ate casual at the restaurant, and then relaxed with TV and internet before bedtime.

Camp LeJeune

Current Position: Longitude 76.39.968W Latitude 34.23.729N (Sloop Creek Anchorage (Topsail Island)).
Miles travelled: 51
Weather: Sunny, breezy, chilly, high 50s
Highlights: Left early (6:15) in order to time the tides with the bridges. Went through Camp LeJeune around noon - they had live-fire exercises scheduled, and we expected opening only between 1-2, but they finished early, so we sailed on through. Long wait at the bridge on the west end, however - guess they didn't get the message about the early ending. Dropped anchor around 5:30 - took several attempts before the anchor would set. Shrimp pasta tonight for dinner - yum yum. Bought fresh yesterday from Homer Smith at $4.25 per pound (de-headed).

Current Position: Longitude 76.39.152W Latitude 34.43.426N (Homer Smith's Marina (Beaufort NC)).
Miles travelled: 21
Weather: Sunny, beautiful weather, high 70, light winds from NE, rain in evening
Highlights: Short trip down Adams Creek to Beaufort. Weather coming in later today, so figured would be wise to hole up for 2 days until it blows over. Walked around the town, then dinner with 3 other couples from boats near us at the marina.
