April 17 / Day 331 / Oriental to Belhaven / 37 NM


Tuesday 4/17         We awoke to 42 degrees and wind and it's not supposed to be windy today. We pushed off a bit after 8:00 and encountered some sloppy seas.  It would have been much worse had we left yesterday.  Observer arrived at River Forest Marina about 1:15.  The dockmaster helped us secure Observer.  It's a bit exposed here and we are rockin' & rollin' a bit but the wind is supposed to lay down later.  We borrowed the marina golf court and did some errands in Belhaven; it's a small rural town.  We then toured the abutting mansion restored by local investors who use it as a wedding venue.  It's a beautiful property.
