Left Beaufort around d 8:30 with low &0s under cloudy skies with thunderstorms all around. Crossing Pimlico sound hit by a major storm. The winds changed direction which brought on confused seas and lots of rain.

10 to 15 from NE with temps in high 80s. Thunderstorms were forecast but did not materialize. We left Georgetown an hour before high tide and ride the current all day long. Perfect day of travel. Beautiful area, plenty of depth and current pushing us.
