Hi Pat, Enjoying following along on the Web as you cruise. If I were you, I'd put the worries of Non-E fuel on the back burner.
The only time you might worry about it is when you're home and storing the boat. The Ethanol fuel works just fine if you're using it up every few days or weeks. Enjoy the trip! _________________ Roger

This blog post covers the last few days while we were waiting for the weather to calm down so we could cross Albemarle Sound! Broad Creek was the perfect place to wait! _________________

We agree Roger, we don't really think we have to worry about the gas as long as we are moving and it is not sitting in the tank for extended periods of time! |

Here is the blog post for yesterday, which was NOT a pleasant day until we arrived at the Vinroots' pier on Cod Creek off the Potomac River! The blog post for the day before, which was a delightful day, will have to wait until I am somewhere with fast enough internet to upload the photos! |

This blog post covers the wonderful four days and five days we waited out the high winds and waves on the Chesapeake Bay at Charlie and Sally Vinroot's home on Cod Creek just off the Potomac. Those of you who know Charlie will know we had a pretty good time! |

Jim, all is well! We had a great time visiting Dr. Bob and Marie in Pensacola and Charlie and Sally in Heathsville, VA. We are now in Cambridge, MD, tied up on the free wall in the Cambridge Creek Basin, and will be here for a few days. Today we wandered into the Dorchester County Office Building looking for tourist information, and found ourselves getting the lowdown from the County Council President! Talk about personal service! |
