Actually sailed some this afternoon!
02 November 2011 | Oriental, NC
Up early again and on the move by 7:30. We motored out the Pungo River, across the Pamlico River, into Goose Creek and Canal into the Bay River. We actually unfurled the sails and sailed out the Bay River and into the Neuse River. Then we motored into the wrong creek for the marina we wanted. Backtracked into the Neuse and the next creek down is where we found Whittaker Point Marina. The picture is the view out into the Neuse from our slip. Plan for tomorrow is to get to Swansboro, NC and probably stay two nights to wait out bad weather (again). The Captain. This is a picturesque spot in the middle of nowhere NC. Reminds me of the Eastern shore of MD. We had dinner in town courtesy of the marina courtesy car and then I couldn’t wait to get back to the boat for the beautiful sunset. It’s still cold but we are inching our way south. The Admiral
