Oct. 22 - Uneventful motor trip from Great Bridge to Coinjock. Weather’s cold, overcast and clammy. It ain’t Boca! Stay overnight at the Midway Marina and will be off early for a night on the hook in the Alligator River.
Oct. 23 - Down the "ditch", across the Albermarle River in very gusty NW conditions and anchor is East Lake at the mouth of the Alligator River. Course from ICW in the lake is full of crab pots, but once inside, they disappear. Anchor overnight in gusty winds but with good protection. It’s getting cold.
