Colorful beach chairs

Along the beach at Corolla we find a whole row of vacant beach chairs which deserved a special shot! Mid morning! Where are the owners?

Corolla Beach Time

Another superb endless as far as the eye can see soft sand beach in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Guests at the beach front house for a week of great beach walking and even better dining!

The current demarcation line

About seven miles offshore of the Oregon Inlet the water change color dramatically! The colder greenish Labrador current flowing south along the coast meets the warm and dark blue northbound Gulf Stream without much sign of merging. Along this thermocline gamefish are very active and we caught 4 sharks, a Remora and a Cobia within an hour! Exciting stuff!

Let's go fishing !

Catching Red Drum off Oregon Inlet NC under the guidance of master angler Sneaky Pete. Most had to be thrown back in being oversized and deemed to be protected as reproductive stage in their life cycle. Did keep some Cobia and Shark!

A new mode of travel !

After 40+ years of water born travel we decided to branch out a bit and get ourselves equipped with a new Flying Cloud Airstream. Shake down cruise to Cape May NJ followed by a week on the Virginia Blue Ridge Parkway and next.... our summer trip north to Nova Scotia and PEI. The water is never far away from us and we will keep one foot in the water and one foot in the Airstream!

Wine on the Water

Great evening at St Margaret's who host wine on the water when school is out! Midnight Coal Company were the musical entertainment for the evening!

CBF jet powered workboat

Docking at RYC for ten days, Jenny S was the workboat platform for several classes run by Chesapeake Bay Foundation. Capt. Jimmy very skilled waterman and teacher! Great job he has! The workboat has a water jet propulsion system and can operate in ultra shallow waters which abound around here!

Seaplane landing

Landing across our bows when all we were trying to do our usual cocktail cruise!
