We are back on the water after many trials, the new engine is working well. With all new engines it will need some adjustments, we will do this when we reach Elizabeth City, NC.
We had one heck of a first day out… It was blowing a stink 25 knots or better and large swells. The wind was in our favor most of the time so this made crossing the Pamlico Sound a bit easier but not much.
We are held up in a small anchorage just south of Dowery Creek It was so calm after the day I fell to sleep with the computer in my lap when trying to write my post…lol
So My first thought of this beautiful sunrise day is can it all go this smooth the rest of the trip? I really hope so we could use a bit of a break with the “little” bit of trouble we have had going home 🙂
My second thought is Thank God for friends… Without the help of my dear friend showing up who knows so much about the engine and how to get it all back together we would have been there, stuck for weeks longer I am sure. It is true what they say about sailing…. A few weeks of utter joy and fun coupled with moments of shear terror. But isn’t that just life?
Have a wonderful Tuesday

What a beautiful picture, Wolf! I am glad you are back on your way and hope the rest of the trip is nothing but pleasant. You have had more than your fair share of problems.
Having some beautiful sunrises and sunsets to enjoy would certainly make the troubles seem more tolerable, though.
Beautiful sunrise, Wolf. Actually, I prefer my life a little less “eventful” than your trip has been. Have a good trip home.
