Good - gotta be better than tying up between two deadmen in a channel

For sure.

Tranny repairs suck.

Yes but this is a good place to get work done. Some of the biggest
builders of custom sportfish are just a few miles south of here - lots
of good people and lots of resources.

It's also an interesting area to poke around in. Kitty Hawk and the
Wright Brothers Museum are a few miles north, Cape Hatteras and
Ocracoke about 60 miles south. There are miles and miles of deserted
beaches, big dunes, interesting wildlife, etc.



We have rented houses on the Outer Banks several times, including in Duck,
Corolla and Kitty Hawk. It is a nice place to vacation.




So have we...hmmm. I like Hilton Head, too.
