Well... We made it to Cape Lookout early this morning, only to find the wind too nasty to stay comfortably for the night. Soooo... We decided to pull up anchor and stay at the Morehead City Yacht Basin. Well, apparently, the windlass thought it might be a good time to break and I found myself having to pull up almost 200' of chain by hand. *sigh*
Now, we get back only to find that NC is getting ready for the biggest heatwave in its history with temps of 105 and heat indices of 112-115. Looks like we better cut this trip short and spend the rest in the pool.
As a side note my tanks are clean. I even, as a precautionary measure, changed my fuel filters while at anchor.
Trip is good... could be better, but happy we're learning more and more about Skinny Dippin' and her... err... ummm... personality traits.
