We “check in” to the anchorage we so like in Whrightsville. Well, let me tell you, this is a must do stop. Mike and Patti from Salt & Light swing by in their Whaler, offer local advice and invite us to join them for dinner, wow, yes we are in! We go…

Underway At Last!!
Atlong last, Equinox is underway once again! Monday, the 17th, was a day full of snags; whilewe’d wanted to leave early, we couldn’t, as we needed to retrieve our new sun-shadefrom the canvas shop, then found it prudent to double-check the new hydr…
A Sisyphean Task…
…will we ever get to depart?? Ron and I are beginning to wonder, as we’re beginning to feel like Sisyphus! For those weak on Greek mythology, Sisyphus was a rather arrogant and nasty king who was punished for his misdeeds by Zeus, who compelled him t…
Little River, SC
The Ruddy DuckWhen last we spoke (sort-of), we had just arrived in Morehead City after a slog up the Neuse River. Well. Captain Sherri was in no mood to cook, so we went to dinner at the Ruddy Duck. We had eaten here before and had a favorable memory. …
Windows open and windows close
Clearly, I spoke too soon in my last post! The weather gods got their laugh after all! After the ugly storms and wind of last weekend, this past week was …. well, gorgeous! Calm seas, blue skies, just a perfect weather window for passage-making — an…

October 7 – 15I can't believe it's been over a week since the last blog post! After leaving Barnegat Light with our repaired engine we had a safe run down the 40 miles of coastline to arrive in Atlantic City at 4:30 p.m. We sure were surp…
End of the Cruising Season
Idyll Time is now resting safe and sound in a large heated warehouse where she will patiently wait for our return next spring. It is always a little heart stopping as the big fat girl is lifted out of the water. With the slings creaking and groaning as they lift the 68,000 pound lady out […]
Mile Hammock
Back in Mile Hammock Bay along with 20+boats. Very tight but doable in the mild winds forecast. September Summer calls us on the VHF, a DeFeever custom trawler. Turns out we “met” them off the Exumas fishing last spring. Small w…
Down the Sounds we go
We leave Mosey at the anchorage in North River, just south of Coinjock. Soljourn stopped off in Coinjock the night before and Sea Quill are headed for Manteo. We decide on the “Sounds Route”. Have done this the last few years and real…
