beautiful weather!
Our trip from the Chesapeake to Lookout Bight, NC was good with enough wind to sail for more than half of the trip. The boat performed well and we're slowly shaking out the wrinkles on the boat and finding what works and does not work after two years on the hard.

We left Lookout Bight, NC at 5am Sunday morning with a forecast of no wind. That's better than the southerlies that are forecast for later in the week so we thought an overnight motor sail in flat seas was quite acceptable.

Not much to report underway except Charles caught a fish -
It was a Little Tunny, kind of fishy for our taste but very edible in a pinch (or heavily battered and deeply fried).

Tucker found his new favorite place to hang out under way:

Of course he's right underfoot and in danger of being stepped on but he likes to live dangerously.

We're in Charleston for a few days to relax after those overnight passages. We'll be here through Thanksgiving and will probably leave Saturday for Amelia Island, FL (another overnight passage....)
