At 0845 the M.V. Salty pulled off of docks at the Alligator River Marina, bound for the Great Dismal Swamp Canal via Elizabeth City. After we pulled into the marina last night we enjoyed yet another "Ahoy There" from a former Seafarer camper who pulled off the highway to come look at the boat. So far in the trip, we have had someone recognize the boat at every stop along our way to the Chesapeake.
The weather is set to warm up today. We look forward to another day of clear skies and calm seas.
The engine has begun to run more smoothly after the rebuild and the fluid levels are beginning to level off. We performed some routine maintenance on the transmission last night and she appears to be shifting and running more smoothly now.
