 “One of America\u2019s Prettiest Towns”<\/a> and Edenton does not lie! <\/p>\n

Magnolia departed Broad Creek which is off the North River near Albemarle Sound on Sunday. We delayed our departure one (1) day to take advantage of a forecast north wind which we road under sail most of the way west across the sound. He sailed under a double reefed main, a \u201chandkerchief\u201d jib in 17-25 making 5.5 \u2013 7.0 all the way across. <\/p>\n

Our Automatic Identification System (AIS) is real life. When we about 7 miles apart from the pictured barge and using our I AIS system I could see that Magnolia and the barge were going to be under that bridge within 1 minute of each other. As you can see from the pictures that would have been a bad plan. We simply made a wide sweep north and allowed the barge to move on through. No fuss no muss!<\/p>\n

We were very much looking forward to visiting Edenton based on what we read. Even before we tied Magnolia up we could see we were not going to be disappointed. The homes appeared absolutely lovely as we approached.<\/p>\n

The town goes to a great deal of effort to provide secure pleasant in-expensive facilities. Granted out visit was pretty late in the season but we had the place to ourselves!  <\/p>\n

After traveling 292.88nm since departing Galesville our girl is looking pretty good!<\/p>\n

We will write more once we explore town further than the local Dairy Queen, though that alone nearly made the trip worthwhile! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
