Morehead City

This why we are hunkered down!
Our anchorage

We are now comfortably anchored in Morehead City awaiting Arthur. We are doing some maintenance and planning a trip to the grocery store for in between rain showers.

Some of the boats are bigger than we are.
Here is a funny story. This boat is the one that came within a mile and a half of me a couple night ago and would not answer on the radio and now it is right next to us in our little harbor. It is the GO MS Chief, apparently a rocket stage recovery ship for SpaceX!

I guess pays to know people, Ian is a member of the OCC (Ocean Cruising Club of which Ian is a world member! And yes there are only 20 world members and there is a flag for that!). The OCC representative in Morehead City contacted us, we don’t know how she knew we were here? She claims to have seen our boat from the bridge near us on the way to work. She will pick us up at the nearest marina and drive us to the grocery and wherever else we need to go. This is better than a platinum card!

We are going to be here awhile, time for some chili
