Day 19- Beaufort ,NC – ICW mm146 Sneads Ferry, NC

We motored all day today, the ICW is very narrow where we are now, it goes from 15 ft to 1 ft depths in a matter of seconds, so we needed to pay attention all day so we did not run aground. Our speed varied also, we kept the same rpm’s on the engine and our speed went from 3.8 knts to 7.2 knts. That is because we crossed so many different tidal currents. We ended up anchoring near Camp Lejeune, a marine base, we can not leave the boat, but it is a nice place to stop. Tomorrow we will head South some more, not sure where we will end up yet.
