We went out into the ocean today! It was perfectly unexciting, which is a good thing. There could have been a little more wind, especially this morning, but we made good time and were able to bring out the screecher and motor sail for the last few hours. We got up at 5:30 this morning and headed off the dock at 6 am. The sun wasn't up yet, but the full moon led us out of the channel.

Leaving Beaufort, NC by moonlight |
We are docked at the Wrightsville Beach Marina and went to dinner at the Blue Water American Grill. We were informed by the bartender that despite all the fishing boats and the proximity to the gulf stream, there is not a single restaurant in town which serves local seafood. Obviously Ben and I are missing Maya - we ordered mojitos and Baby Back Ribs. We ate and drank because we were tired and hungry, but there was no comparison - there is no place like home.
