We continue to hope that Earl will track further east. The image above is the forecast track as of Wednesday morning. We are preparing to move C’est la Vie out of the Beaufort and head inland to a secure anchorage in the South River. I placed a red thumbtack on the map below to highlight our planned anchorage.
This seems like the best area for us to hide from Earl’s passing. Unfortunately the Verizon coverage map is less than favorable for staying in touch with everyone. Hopefully we will have cell phone connection, but coverage in the area is spotty.
Our plan is to set our anchors in the South River by this afternoon and begin to prep the boat by removing sails, canvas, etc. The storm is expected to pass during Thursday night. If all goes well then we will be back in Beaufort/Taylor’s Creek by Friday afternoon.
I wish you luck
