So, we broke anchorage and headed north for our destination--Bald Head Island, NC. It was about 70 miles from our Waccamaw anchorage. Above Myrtle Beach, we decided to poke our heads out the inlet at Little River to see if we could go outside for the rest of the trip to Bald Head. The ocean was smooth with 2-3 foot rollers, well spaced out, and the weather forecast was favorable, so outside we went. As I pan left, you can see IslandHopper; Sea Huddle was farther aft and is not visible. You can also see the shore as I pan left to get an idea how far off shore we were. I was on autopilot for most of the 1.5 hour off shore run. Autopilot really shines in off shore runs.
