I don’t normally write and drive at the same time, but today I’ll make an exception. Here’s the scenery.
I’m chugging along in a straight line for the next hour or so. Head current, making about 6 knots. It’s a parade of slow cruising power boats. Ahead of me is this boat, the Nancy Lakin. My kind of boat.
There’s a Nordavn that’s been shadowing me all day and two Nordic Tugs, all going about the same speed.
All is good aboard. I stopped in Moorehead City yesterday for fuel (5.75 mpg!) and a meal out. The current gods have generally smiled on me the last few days and I’m making good time.
I’m heading north to Montreal, and my goal has been to be in Troy NY by May 17 when the canal opens. I have no idea how I’m tracking against that. Will do some further planning before I get to Norfolk in a couple of days. Next stop is Elizabeth City, then through the Dismal Swamp Canal. I like this part of the ICW.
Pics from the last few days.
