We left Veras'/Solomons Tuesday night around 9:30pm. After a great night sail dodging big cruise ships and huge tankers (with one close call!), daylight broke....what a sight and experience!
We maintained good speed throughout with winds from 15 to 25 kn maybe more (our windvane does not work so we don't know the actual wind forces) + we had a nice current of 1 to 2 kn helping along... we did over 10 kn speed over ground at various times surfing the waves.
At 12:30 we docked at Cutty Sark Marina in Little Creek, Norfolk, VA waiting for a low pressure storm system to pass before heading out on Thursday.

| Capt Arno - It's good to have a 3rd person for night watch. Plus, he is super experienced. |
