Belhaven, NC to Norfolk, VA

Our string of 6 beautiful, sunny days finally came to an end.  Today we woke to overcast skies and by 10:00am we had a steady, all day rain.  We pulled out of Belhaven at 7:00 on our way to Norfolk.  I had talked to the owner last night and the weather for the next several days looked terrible with seas 5 to 8 feet offshore.  We decided it didn't make sense to try to push our luck, so the decision was made to leave the boat in Norfolk until a suitable 2 day weather window opened up for us and we could make the final run from Norfolk, VA to Stamford, CT.

We covered another 138 miles yesterday from Belhaven to Norfolk.  This brings our total trip to 1,085 miles from Miami.  We have just 2 days left, but need the weather to cooperate for us.  We look forward to finishing up and getting Ken his boat home.
