Tuesday departure day.....it's going to be beautiful....winds are breezy and the sun is shining. Guess who drove to Morehead City so he could join us on the Nanseann!!!!
Uncle Glen with his personal driver Virginia
We cruise up the Newport River to Adams Creek and into the Neuse River at Stm 185. This is the widest river in the United States. The wind's direction and strength, not the moon, cause the tide fluctuations in the Upper Neuse. Well, today we have a calm day so we should have a smooth ride.
Leaving Morehead City Yacht Basin
Looking back...RR Bridge still open...but they do have trains

No doubt who will get to New Bern first....rollers coming
Coming under the Bridge 5 1/2 hours later
We go under the Cunningham Bridge (14 foot) at Mile 0. The Bridge is closed from 4-6PM but will open at 5PM if vessels are waiting and closes again from 6:30-8:30AM but will open at 7:30AM if vessels are waiting. Important information for us....we want to leave early Friday morning....
"Captain, We'll have the bridge open for you when you get here"
