Is your marina well protected from nor'easters? We're just starting
to get the first big gusts down here on the outer banks of NC.
You must be getting pushed around a little about now huh?

We're docked in a nice snug little cove right by the bridge to Nags
Head so were not getting any seas to speak of, but the wind is howling
tonight and the boat is being buffeted around. Hopefully we'll be
heading south again in a week, waiting for tranny repairs right now.


Good - gotta be better than tying up between two deadmen in a channel
huh? :)

Tranny repairs suck.
