Captain’s log 11-01-06
Departure Point / Start Time Little Alligator River NC 8 AM
Arrival Point / End Time Belhaven NC 5:30PM
Distance Traveled / Engine 50 NM
Although we didn’t plan on it, we actually made it all the way to Belhaven. They have an internet café and a town here. We can get water, gas and groceries. Looks like we can sail on our next leg all the way to Oriental, where we’ll meet Rick, another C&C owner from the C&C online forum. This place is wonderful, the anchorage is good, temperature was in the high 70s and evening is in the mid 50s. Feels like we got away from the winter. The smell of pine is so refreshing, it is like our bathroom air freshener at home. I am proud to say what we covered 80 NM and two days without running aground. And we had tree major opportunities to screw up. But we didn’t. Hopefully it stays that way.

Man, sounds like a lot of trouble getting down the coast! ;-)
But I'm sure you're getting shallow water experts very soon!
