Probably some sailnetters in the harbor there today as it is a day sail from Oriental and Manteo. There's a friend of mine RAY on a Southern Cross 31 with maroon canvass who should be there by now. Say hi from Cam if you see him. Great place and voted one of the top 10 US beaches this year.

Here's a few pictures from Ocracoke from our sail there last year incase some of you are wondering what it's like. I suspect Sailusvi saw a sunset simular to this one over the Pamlico Sound:



Overlooking Silver Lake...




Coast Guard Station at the entrance to Silver Lake...




My impression of the Ocracoke Lighthouse...






Big waves in the Pamlico Sound... ok, big for a P27 anyway! 4-6'
