    Wow, at 12:57 (and @ 14:39) somebody has some scratch. The lead boat on the dock at Coinjock, white over champagne/grey downeast style yacht, that's a Zeelander Z55. They're a dutch built luxury yacht that are some of the absolute best (the Rolls-Royce of 50'-70' motor yachts).

    This is such familiar territory for me and I'm loving seeing y'alls take on it. For 4 years I worked for the state of NC as a biologist technician based in Elizabeth City. We worked all over that sound, mainly collecting data from fish species, but the mouth of the Alligator River and the wide expanse of the Albemarle right out from it were prime areas for us to collect, or tag and release striped bass, working out of 20' center consoles with 150hp outboards, most similar to what local crabbers use. Over on the Virginia Cut side, I have boated and worked by the boat ramp on the shore in Coinjock, but to this day my BFF lives in Currituck County and we can walk down to the water down the street from her house and see the wide North River from their neighborhood beach on the river right down the street from her house.

    Jen and Elliot, You may want to get a marine clam shell covering for you your anchor locker drain holes if you don't have them. They will decrease the water that is pushed in by waves in bigger seas. Quick, easy install for about 10 dollars! Less worries about bilge getting water. Love your vlog! Bob and Linda on Breeze.

    Two pieces of info for the Engineer: If you find it difficult to finely adjust belt tension on your engine, NAPA sells a ($8 or so) belt tensioner that makes the job ooh-so easy. (They also sell an inexpensive belt tension measurer to help you avoid over-tightening, thereby overworking the bearings in the alternator). And it's probably obvious to say this, but don't replace that bilge pump until after you've confirmed the wiring isn't the problem. If you don't know how to do continuity checks, anyone with a VOM can show you - dead simple.

    My family never took the Virginia Cut route from Hampton, VA to Elizabeth City, NC - always the Dismal Swamp Canal. One time, on our annual trip to Elizabeth City, several of the larger yachts had to take the Virginia Cut; while the smaller boats could take the DSC. The water in the DSC had become so swallow, that they (Corp of Engineers) almost shut the canal down. I think we scraped the bottom 2 -3 times (2"10" draft on our boat). So it was really nice to see what we missed by not taking that route. Have fun in Norfolk!
