We're at Coinjock Marina

It appears that most boats were headed to Coinjock Marina yesterday. The place was hopping. We had a long wait to register because all the deck hands were out getting boats to the dock. And. The dock was packed! They were fully booked for the night.

We woke up to a beautiful day with interesting skies.

It is now 8:45, and we are feeling a little lonely. Here are the docks today.

Mike asked around, and other boat captains said they were heading out early to get to Oriental. We're setting off in a bit ourselves. We'll be heading to the Alligator River Marina. According to the web, our favorite cook is still there. Miss Annette makes wonderful fried chicken and very tasty fried shrimp. Plus, there will be laundry! We'll be there early afternoon, and we are looking forward to the opportunity to catch up on basic chores. Yes, Dear Reader, it's not always fun and games on the water. Sometimes you just have to take care of the basics!
