Yeah, I wish we were more aware of it before we came upon it... MAYBE we would have tried to time the tides. I recall going through another similar cut later on where it was even worse. :)
@@Sailing9LIVES I won't spoil it, but I know where you're talking about. I made that mistake northbound against wind, tide and current. Total washing machine.
Thank you, Walt! We are finishing up rolling out our videos leading up to the sinking of 9 LIVES. But we have more adventures to come, as we are very close to deciding on our next boat. :)
I got lucky going thru Snows Cut to the Cape Fear. Tide and current were in my favor. First time I saw this old Gulf Star hit 9 knots.
