MORE BLING AND CHICO'S

We departed Southport Marina at 0930 after Cathy and Joe had a tour of the quaint little town. We motor/sailed up the Cape Fear River into a 4 knot head current. After encountering all the weekend crazies who own boats, but no knowledge of the water ie huge wakes, etc, we went outside again at Masonboro Inlet and sailed to Beaufort/Morehead City. Made 8.4 knots most of the way, and up to 8.8 at the end as we surfed down the following waves. We had a rough ride the last hour as we sailed into the inlet with 5/6 foot waves on the beam after dark, thus Bling and Chico's! Nanc cooked a pot roast in the pressure cooker and we ate at 2230, drinks before. S
