Got off at 7:30 uneventfully. There was a lot of black muck on the anchor chain. Even with the deck was it managed to bring lots of stinky muddy yuck on the freshly scrubbed deck. Looks like we will be starting from sq one with the boat cleaning once we get to Oriental, NC. We traveled about 44 miles today and stopped at Mile Hammock Bay near Camp Lejune. We are here with 5 boats. Tomorrow should be a long day, 60+miles to the just short of the Nuese River.
Kitty did much better today. He usually sleeps with me on his half of a king size bed, so finding space to get comfy in a 30" berth was not working out too well. He must have come and tried 15 times, each time he woke me up meowing I should move over and give him more room. Lots of luck with that. He did not cry and meow each time we swayed today and seemed to be much more relaxed that yesterday. He may make a sailor cat after all. He ventured up into the cockpit once we dropped anchor and nosed around looking for a gap in the canvas large enough to get out of. He did not succeed so opted for the highest point in the cockpit to survey his surroundings.
We had little off and on spits of rain but nothing big. Maybe tomorrow we will get the rain that has been predicted. Would help wash the deck if we got a good hard shower.
