11/07/15

We are now on Day 6 and arrived into Cape May Harbor after another choppy ride. Nana was smarter this time. She wrapped up and with life jacket on and remained outside in the cockpit for the ride! The shipper took the helm down below. The entrance into Utsch's Marina is extremely narrow. Pulling into the diesel dock was quite the challenge as was into the slip. I think the Skipper passed his driving test today- great job. We have done a total of 252 NM so far. That equates to approximately 24 hours on the ocean going an average of ten knots. The skipper saw Dolphins on our way in and lots of migratory birds with terns occasionally making their bomb dive for food. Another lay day expected tomorrow due to high winds. Picture of the Delaware Bay which will be our next adventure and the key for the head and laundry ( I think we should make one like this for the Newport parking pass! ).
A very relaxed and relieved Skipper.
