Tim came over in their dinghy to pick us up for breakfast on their boat. We had a great breakfast of omelets, bacon, watermelon and coffee cake. Tim ran Sailor and me to shore and then back to Love and Cheer to pick up Dora and then on to our boat. We pulled anchors about 0930 and Dave followed us out of South Lake since we had the best navigation program. At Albemarle Sound, we went north to Elizabeth City and they turned east for Manteo, NC.
It was pretty choppy crossing the sound but we were headed into the waves so rolling wasn’t a problem. It was calmer the 15 miles up the Pasquotank River to Elizabeth City. We arrived around 1400. They were having speed boat races in the River near down town and had blocked the entire River, including the ICW, to boat traffic. We anchored and waited until 1700 when the races were over to go to town in the dinghy. The free slips appeared to be too narrow for Seascape’s 15 foot beam so we decided to stay at anchor and dinghy to town while we were there. We walked around for a while and bought some ice and headed back to the boat. We watched television for a while because reception was pretty good and went to bed early.
