We are taking 2 days to travel a distance that we would normally take three days. The daylight hours are a bit less than 12 now, so we were up at 6:30 AM and underway at 7:15. The anchor took some extra time as the chain was quite dirty.
It had rained most of the night and conditions in the AM were a bit bleak - reminded us of Canada. Once we had crossed Albemarle Sound and entered the Alligator River I rigged up a long hose on the salt water pump and attempted to clean up the insect mess.As well as the bodies we were still carrying a few million "flyers" and I tried to knock them out of the air with the hose. When we are at the marina in New Bern I will finish the job with the "wet and dry" vacuum.
After the Albamarle we were in sheltered water all the way and made decent time.
Received confirmation today that we have a slip in IOP.
