Today's Pic

Was taken by our old buddy, Captain Pete, from his balcony. overlooking Baltimore's Inner Harbor.
And, today is also Pete's Birthday.

So it seems fitting that we show a rerun of the video of Pete crossing the Chesapeake in his boat 'Morewater' (less dirt).
We were heading to Onancock, VA and Pete had his old buddy Bill aboard enjoying the crossing,
It was a beautiful fall day.



 
Happy Birthday, Peter

Hope it's a good one,

Make A Great Dingy

Jet Capsule

Like a Smart car for the sea, this 23-foot Italian made Micro Yacht gets you and a few friends on the open ocean for a fraction of the cost of those big rigs. The Jet Capsule is also well-equipped:  the dining area converts to a bunk plus there are options like a compact kitchen, & even a private bathroom. via

Though it would look a bit odd

Happy Friday...

For some — .

Have a nice weekEND.

Today's Pics

Are from Baltimore.

The outside of Baltimore's Inner Harbor.

So, it appears we may stick around Daytona an extra day or so. Seems those northers have really picked back up.
I just looked out and noticed there were no lights or motion amongst the pack of boats we've been traveling with since Fernandina... the last place we got stuck.
Got a feeling everybody might be takin' a dirt day.
Oh well... need to make a few phone calls and do some biz anyway.

Adios,

Look who showed up.
We pulled into Camache Cove yesterday and Aphrodite was about an hour behind.

Think we may make it to Daytona today.

Good Day, Sunshine

Two Drifters

Nordhavn N50

Looks Good To Me

As we were heading out Beaufort Inlet... It seemed flat. Rich said, "Looks good to me!"... and we agreed, it did.

But... as the day drew closer to an end, the chunkier it became.

Then the term chunky became an understatement.

It was too dark to photograph, but at one point I saw Two Drifters pitch almost completely out of the water — saw their stabilizer fins.  I'm sure we were doing the same.

That's when we decided to head west to seek shelter and we found it there.

Bumpy night.

Leaving Fernandina Beach today... the winds have finally laid down though it's still rainy and foggy.
It's really been blowing for the last couple of days.
Only good thing about that... kept the gnats away.
Not sure where we stop next.

Adios,

Istaboa
