This was our next stop, Caspers Marine in Swansboro NC. Linda and I are basically on our way to our next major destination, Norfolk. Lady Royal and Bade Boomer are headed for the Dismal Swamp so we travelled together for this leg of our respective journeys. Swansboro was actually a nice little, very little town. One of the locals suggested the Icehouse Waterfront restaurant and it proved to be a good choice. For a small town there were at least 3-4 other good looking choices for food. It was late in the day so none of the shops were open (hooray) but it was an excellent stop to spend the night.
The 67 miles was a long day but there were a few interesting parts to the trip. We passed a fairly large shrimping fleet along the way; one almost expected to see Bubba Gump or some one similar. Unfortunately not.We also passed an entrance or sound to the Atlantic Ocean where it was extremely shallow and narrow due to all of the shoaling. There was much sand at that point so it was expected. It still made travelling a wee bit scary and nerve wracking.
