Cape Lookout
A Nice Sail
Today we stopped at the Beaufort docks for fuel and pump out and headed out
to go for a sail. We went on a southerly tack for about an hour then turned
port heading about 120 all the way to Cape lookout. Sam got a little ill
and had to lay down a couple times but all in all it was a really nice day
and we did an average of 5 knots with a peak of 7.3 in 10g14 of wind. The
Barometer was 30.10 with partly cloudy skies and about 80deg. In the
beginning there was a pretty big thunderstorm building to our starboard but
it looked like it would pass south of us. In the end it blew it's self out
and we only got a couple drops. We motored into the spit and anchored.
Hannah made Rice, chicken, and Broccoli for dinner and we sat and ate as the
sun went down. It was a beautiful sunset. Shortly after dark the
CoastGuard came in and picked up a bouy and looks like they're staying the
night here. There are also some Dolphins playing around the boat tonight.
