Gusty SW winds all day built to steady 20kts later in the day. Met a very large barge early in the day at a narrow passage between red and green markers so opted to hold position before the markers to let it pass. Unfortunately we drifted off the channel too far and got stuck in the mud. We were able to manoeuvre our way out,  back into the channel shortly after the barge passed by. 😮‍💨
Sailed with Genoa downwind in the Pamlico River until Belhaven. 
Pretty scenery through the Alligator-Pungo Canal. Saw three deer on the canal banks. 
Very long day. Anchored in about 11ft of water at Sandy Pt. In 20kts SW winds. A little choppy but pretty well protected.
