Those guys are great. VERY accommodating staff. The steaks are actually very good as well.

Did you take Alligator/Pungo Canal or did you go through the sounds?

Spent the night here..

Some very cool boats here.

This is a prop!

Most of us know of these guys.....didn't bump into them or their dogs

Morning jobs to get boat ready. Like a preflight of an airplane.
Ice the coolers down. There's a commercial ice maker onboard....

Down into the engine room..

Captain checking the engine..

Other Captain checking the compartments in the rear..

Wish I had this engine room..

I will that would be cool. There's no way to pinpoint a time yet.....
Too many variables when your going this easy pace.
Were going to pull out the sails and see if the speed changes.....
