The Dinner with Monroe ended with Rick having five pieces of pie and four pieces of cake,,, holy shit... this guy can out a dent in anything...


When we returned to the boat the storm had almost passed. This morning Rick was still hungry!!

Jeff and I got up first and took showers. Then we waited for Rick for 45 minutes, Late Again!!

So we got off to a great start not knowing what the day would bring. The river to get out of the marina

is quite a deep river, some spots over 70 feet deep. It actually resembles the form of a snake.

Not too many crap pots at the mouth today(thats not a typo..). The wind was at our back so the waves were great!

The way to Cape May was uneventful except the hum of the motor. 10 minutes out of the mouth of the River,

Rick said, what do you want to eat!!! I must have gained 10lbs on this trip already, Jeff Just takes

another drink,( Milk of course). We arrived at Cape May quite quickly, the Canal was marked very well

and the Ferrys were not running so we had no navigational problems. The Canal to Cape May was only 150 feet

wide and 15 foot deep so it left no room for error. We got gas,water, and a pain in ass fuel attendant...at the first
Marina.

Thank God Jeff only had 3 glasses of Milk we had 3 inches on either side of the gas dock to spare as we are 18' and the gas dock was 18'6", good thing it wasn't windy!!.

We are looking forward to going out to the real ocean tomorrow. I guess it will be time for the

seasick pills, more beer, and wishful thinking hoping we will make it to the next dockage.
