Thursday 10/28 - Day 2

We got up to leave the Alligator marina at 6am but the draw bridge was under wind restriction and didn't open for us until 7:15am. The weather was cloudy with 5 to 10 knot winds . We calibrated the knots and speed over ground on the GPS. We also calibrated the GPS, the bennical, and autopilot compasses. We rigged a preventer to prevent an accidental jybe off shore. We arrived and anchored off Oriental, NC after 13.1 hours. Tomorrow we will head to Moore Head City about 4 hours away where we will prepare and prevision the boat for off shore for Friday night.
