We waited on mail and got a late (noon-ish) start out of Thunderbolt, needed to “blow out the turbos” so we went on the Outside—the ocean. The seas were calm (2 ft) and while we didn’t save any time we enjoyed a day at sea. The silver flying fish were really working some of the aquamarine water and the pelicans put on a show of clumsily landing to scoop up some lunch. We missed Hilton Head—major no no for the society folk—but we passed Parris Island (not Camp Lejeune) on the way to Beaufort. This little village is more our style than Hilton Head. Hell, we might have to get out of our cut-offs to go to a restaurant. We are going to stay here at Lady’s Island for a couple of day then head into Charleston.

| Passing a big container ship heading--It was heading into Savannah |

Just a note, camp Lejuene is in North Carolina and what you saw was Camp Paris in Beaufort, SC. We are having great weather and your boat is getting a regular wash down and looking good.
