The current was against us for most of the day. We had it with us for just the trip up the Cape Fear River, which is real good, but when you add the wind, which gave us a good
push, we were able to make up some time. Of course, then we lost some as we
fought the strong current in Snow’s Cut.
SV AVANTI was our traveling companion for a good part of the way. We
parted as we made the turn to head to the mooring fields.
When the batteries were checked once we shut down, we found that we were
not charging and were losing the charge while motoring. Add to that frustration, the dinghy engine
would not start. Pete had to row from
mooring ball “#1” to the town dock, which isn’t far, but is hindered by the
strong 15-20 SSW winds! Needless to say,
he wasn’t a happy camper!
