Tuesday 27th October Beaufort NC, mile 202 (20 miles)

Left Oriental at about 8:30 this morning. The sky was grey and we felt a mild drizzle of rain. Visibility was down to about a mile as we crossed the Neuse river to head into Adams Creek and onto Beaufort, NC.

Pretty uneventful 20 mile trip. Missed the opening of the Bascule bridge at Beaufort at 11:00 and had to hang around for 30 minutes until the next opening.

Docked at Beaufort docks (we needed to take on diesel and they can refuel you in the slip, pretty handy)

Here we are amongst a bunch of huge powerboats feeling a bit our of place...

Just before departure from Oriental...



Bit of a grey day...
