[Rhodes22-list] Outer Banks Sea Trials

[Wally Buck]

Bill,

Good luck! As Alex mention be careful sailing into Ocracoke. I haven't made 
the exact trip but have sailed in the area. Lots of shallows and shoals. 
Watch out for crab pots! And don't forget to bring your anchor chain! LOL

Jenny and I leave June 16th to help my Uncle move his Pearson 35 from FL up 
to Delaware Bay. We plan some time inside and outside the ICW. Weather 
permitting we will tuck inside at Beufort and take ICW up to Oregon Inlet 
and back out or stay on ICW up to Norfolk and then sail to Delaware.

Take some pics!

Wally
