Sunday evening and Spooner Creek

JJWe went in to Beaufort and had lunch. The little boat did just fine starting halfway through the first pull. And even better it kept going. The lunch was good and very relaxing. As we finished I said maybe we should go.

First the best and really the only anchorage, near Beaufort, we could get was very close to the channel. Second the Atlantic Beach Bridge was rated as a 2.  If we left we would cross under around low tide. If we left tomorrow morning we would be around high tide. Trish and I decided to leave.

We got to the Atlantic Beach Bridge one and a half hours before low tide. The boards read 64.5. We decided to go for it and passed under just touching. I believe if we tried to do it at high tid we would hit.

This is how we find ourselves in Spooner Creek. I will show you a picture but first we saw more Dolphins and while not good we have a new picture.
