Fareast is on a distinguished road
We left CT in Oct of 08 and we are now in Jacksonville. We were able to sail down NJ, however, it was very rough and we sailed a little in the Cheasapeake, Albemarle and a little in Pamlico sound. We stayed inside (except for outside NJ) the whole way. We wanted to expierence the ICW at least once. We are so glad we did. It can be challengeing in its own way with the depths and currents. We anchored out most of the time, and in many winter gales. It was a blast. I guess when we hit Morehead City and saw dolphins for the first time would be our best stay. We actually stayed for free at the Sanitary Rest., excellent food! We will continue south this fall, but it was without a doubt an expierence of a lifetime.
