April 13, 2002 | Alligator River Swing Bridge |
|
|  | Under construction We passed a boat named BLUE IRIS in the channel. Heard the Coast Guard talking to a boat names SHOWTIME which I think is in trouble off Hattaras. As we are approaching the Alligator River Swing Bridge, we hear a 70 foot boat (which passed us and swamped us) VICTORY AT SEA down at marker R8- he is aground because he doesn't know that the channel has been renumbered. |
| | Got to Alligator River Marina after 54.3 sm (a total of 1482 nm). |
| | TWO OLD BEARS, who was at Oriental next to us comes in too. They have a big orange cat and a husky who doesn't like boats. |
| Marina gas dock and lighthouse |
| | Also HIGHLANDER (a monohull)traveling with power boat named HOLLANDAISE, ARCTURUS, a boat with no name visible but which I think is called CRUISER, BLUE IRIS, and BEDOUIN are at this marina. |
| | We got fuel (97 cents/gal) and ate dinner at the truck stop. |
| Side of waterway in Coinjock 2004 |
| | This morning the marina gave us a free Sunday paper. Next stop Coinjock |
