Beaufort, SC November 27, 2008

Things seldom work out as planned. We stayed an extra day in Charleston but it was strictly a sick day. Chet's cold is not getting any better. We left for Beaufort this morning after Chet decided we were not going to further delay. There were interesting events as we headed south. A two masted sailboat sank in Charleston Harbor while being towed by a good samaritan. Another boat lost it's transmission and had to be towed into Charleston. As we approached Beaufort it was revealed that the Sisters Bridge is mechanically damaged and normally only opens twice a day, but today only once. Doesn't matter to us since we can go under it. A number of sailboats do hate this. Enough for now. Further south tomorrow.

Happy Thanksgiving from New Bern. We hope to be on our way by Tuesday, 12/2 and your comments have helped. Safe motoring and get rid of that pesky cold! Pete and Suzy
