I'm Outta Here


Wow, that water feels good. This is the beginning of a five-day trip up the ICW from Beaufort, N.C. to Annapolis, MD.
The trip will take us over 135 miles through the waterways and rivers of North Carolina. We will emerge into the River at Norfolk, Virginia. From there we will proceed up the Bay for over 120 miles to Annapolis, Maryland. There a slip awaits me at the Whitehall Creek Marina.

Work Day

My owners arrived late last night and spent the night on board. It was strange having strangers on board. Who are these people, where did they come from and where are we going? I heard them talking about working on me the next morning. And then taking a trip. A trip!

They've been busy. Sanded my bottom with 80 grit paper and two coats of Interlux Aqua. My engine had been thoroughly serviced by of A1 Diesel, Inc. A thorough cleaning and five days of supply and we are ready to go tomorrow.
