It is all about the weather, we planned to travel on
Thursday to Belhaven about 44 miles. We knew a major storm was approaching but
the weather window looked OK for an early departure and arrival. I looked on
Google maps at the new marina sight where we then planned to stay for two days
while the front passed. There was little protection from the south to the
marina and the expected winds were 30 mph from the SSE. We decided it was best
to wait out the storm here at the beautiful River Dunes Marina. It was already
gusty at 7:00 our departure time and the wind speed increased as predicted
throughout the morning and early afternoon. The rain finally arrived after
midnight and the winds decreased after raining and blowing for a couple of
hours.
I installed the water system accumulator in the morning, had
a bike ride and then a swim. All in all I am very comfortable with the decision
to remain here to wait out the storm.
