Sunday, November 3. 730pm If you have read the earlier post, you know that we have been having engine troubles. But it turns out that we had other troubles I will tell you about, and we’re still not sure of the cause. I had finished my short post and went to the head to take […]

places we have anchored or moored in.
Sunday, October 20, Day 103 This morning when we woke at 7:45 AM it was about 63 degrees and cloudy. Today we went the short jump from Lady’s Island to Beaufort to meet up with SV Bentana. We cast off at 11 AM and about an hour later we rafted off Judy and Stephen’s boat. […]
Sunday, Oct 13 to Monday, Oct 14 Days 96 & 97 Sunday we raised our anchor at 712am and went aground coming out of the anchorage at 33 52.249″ W and 78 34.313W. We backed off, so wasn’t so bad but this happened because we read Skipper Bob’s guide to ICW (their updated edition) and […]
Saturday, September 28, Day 81 This morning dawned with lots of fluffy clouds in the sky and a lull in the wind. I looked at the calendar and realized that our friends Don and D were going on a trip a week from Monday. Wow in only ONE week! So if we wanted to see […]
Monday, September 23. Day 76 Last night we made the decision not to go back north to attend the SSCA (Seven Seas Cruising Association) Annapolis Gam which I had really wanted to attend to meet cruising folks. We are to have north winds for the next few days and need to get south to try […]
Wednesday, September 4. Day 57 606am we start the engine, but the snubber hooked on the chain twice, once in the top part and again in the bottom slot and it was something for Phil to get unhooked. Finally at 615am we raised anchor the 2nd boat to leave. At 645am on the Atlantic Ocean […]
Sunday, September 8. Day 60 We’ve been gone for 2 months. It’s hard to believe. Today our goal is to get to Middle River as close to where our Niece, Heather, lives to spend a few days. We raised anchor at 731am knowing that we would be fighting the current all the way down, but […]
Saturday, September 7. Day 59 Last night we set the alarm for 5am so that we would have 30 min to get ready to leave at 530am so that we would catch the rising tide at the end of Cape May Canal to ride the current up the Delaware Bay. I don’t know what happened, […]
Tuesday, September 3. Day 56 We very much enjoyed our stay with Jim and Linda and appreciate all the hospitality. We hope to see them again later in our travels. After our last breakfast we left their dock at 933am to be close to high tide on our way through Oyster Channel so if we […]
Monday, August 19, Day 43 The morning was spent with Lorraine updating the blog. She’s gotten behind with doing other things. Phil spent the time reading and puttering. By early afternoon, we were ready to get off the boat and explore. First order of business was to get rid of the garbage. At the town […]
