Motorsail to Oriental

​Current Location:  Oriental Harbor anchorage, Oriental, NC
Miles Traveled:  42
Weather:  Sunny, calm, high-60s
Highlights: Raised anchor at 7:30 and followed the ferry out of the channel and into Pamlico Sound.  Motored in calm seas and winds across the sound and up the Neuse River to Oriental.  Arrived around 3PM, and dropped anchor just outside the harbor in about 8 feet of water.  Cooked the red drum on the grill for dinner, served over rice with a garden salad.  Watched TV and read before turning in early.
