Today was essentially a reverse of day 2--Pungo Ferry Bridge to Fishing Bay. Of course it couldn't be easy! For starters our chartplotter wouldn't work. Thankfully our charting app on the iPhone/iPad did! It was cool and breezy, but otherwise just a few showers dampened our trip through the bridges and locks. After following my friend Matt's ship, USS TRUXTUN, out of port we were slamming pretty hard in 4-6' seas which got K feeling a little icky. Given a crummy forecast for tomorrow and abating seas tonight we decided to push on until after dark to make Fishing Bay since we knew it would be a good spot to wait out the weather. We were rewarded with a beautiful sunset and 12 hours after we got underway we dropped the hook. With that, I'm off to bed!
