We were anchored in Broad Creek last night, but didn’t see any frogs (remember last time here we had a few hitch-hikers), but we did hear thousands of them. While the frogs made no physical presence on the boat, the same can’t be said of the mayfli…

Near Nowhere
Really – the nearest “thing” is the Coinjock Marina and it’s 12 miles away. We’re anchored in Broad Creek, which is a lovely, protected anchorage just off the Albemarle Sound. Today’s transit of which, was also lovely – a following sea, such …
Near Belhaven
We left Morehead City around sunrise, going through the Neuse River, the Pamlico River, the Pungo River, and a few canals. Our anchorage tonight is in Scranton Creek, which affords protection from the wind in every direction except the west. Amazingly,…

Morehead City day 2

Morehead City
Today was not a perfect day. It started out fairly well, going out the inlet at 9 knots. But with a nine hour run, one can’t expect conditions to remain constant. The whole day was lumpy with a combined beam and following sea, but the waves were arou…
Wrightsville Beach
Well, yesterday we beat the tug/barge, but today we had to pass her (see photos). That was really the only entertainment of the day. The tug captain was really great – he called us, told us his intentions (a wide turn), and told us when we should pass …

We had a great anchorage behind Butler Island – it’s more like a big lake. A couple of other cruising boats joined us there for a very pleasant evening. We were getting ready to get underway this morning, when Nick looked at the AIS and saw a tug/bar…
