Friday 23 October, E City to Pungo River, mile 127 (77 Miles)

Up at 6:00 as usual and left the dock at dusk around 7:00. Tim and Diane apparently saw our running lights disappear on the Elizabeth City Harbor Cam. It was a glorious morning and the conditions were perfect for crossing the Albemarle Sound, which is notorious for being nasty in a blow. Fantastic crossing over Albemarle Sound steaming at 7.5 knots under motor blowing past everyone, go motor boat Querencia. Making good headway we decided to push through the Alligator - Pungo River Canal for a good nine hour trip.

We decided to anchor that night in a little creek at the end of the canal as we were running out of steam and a stinker storm was brewing from the South.

Getting out of Dodge:



They call me the wild rose...



Sham wow...



Crispy skies - nice hat dude...



Mad woman boat driver...
