Extended our stay in Beaufort due to the Onslow bridge closure, moved over to Town Creek Marina which was also very nice and well run. 

NE winds around 10-15kts, gusting to 20, kicked up some waves in the shallow Neuse River but settled down once we were shelter in the narrower rivers and channels of the ICW. Windy conditions again on arrival at Homer Simpson Marina, great direction and assistance from the Dockmaster. Very nice marina, great facilities, free laundry and loaner van. After a walk around town and a burger at the Royal James Cafe we took a drive to West Marine with Dawn, Bill (who we met in Oriental) and Duane. 
Cool evening, and windy. Have the heat on and settled in for the night. 
Expecting high winds for a couple days and a bridge is closed this week for construction on the next stretch of the ICW so we may be here for several days. 

Oriental to Beaufort, NC (Homer Smith Marina, then Town Creek Marina)
