******

Just found out that the NC Cedar Island ferries
expect to enter the Ocracoke Big Foot Channel
on June the 8th at approximately
one hour and ten minutes after departure from Cedar Island.
They travel at about 12mph.

This is a good way to follow the ferry
in the channel into Silver Lake.
We could time our departure from Oriental appropriately.
We would then have a good GPS track
available when leaving Ocracoke.

That day a ferry will--
leave Cedar at: 10:00AM arrive at 14BF Marker at 11:10AM
leave at 11:00AM arrive at 12:10PM
leave at 1:00PM arrive at 2:10PM
leave at 4:00PM arrive at 5:10PM

Also, the NC Swan Quarter ferries will be arriving and departing
this same channel.

With good weather this should be a fun weekend for C-Dory's.

Karan and I plan to be down on Lady KC

We will then move the boat to
The Oriental Marina & Motel on Thursday.

I will have the "NC Wildlife Special Use Permits"
with us for those who will be launching their C-Dory's
from the Oriental facility.

Note--our phone number (910-295-2034)
will be forwarded on board to Karan's cell phone.

I should mention that we have Friday evening dinner reservations at the Dajio restaurant,
just a short walk from the Anchor Inn & marina.

Remember to pack your swim suits
for lounging around the marina pool.

I also hope some of us might be able to get in some fishing.

See you all very soon in Oriental, NC.

Bill ... do you have a list of boats/captains who have signed up?

It's handy to know who's in the group when listening to the marine radio.
