Northerly winds again but much lighter. It was pretty cold starting out at first
light (7 am), and the boat was covered in dew.
There was also about 2 feet of mist over the water which was rather
pretty. With light following winds, we
motorsailed most of the day and made great time. We reached the town of Oriental, 35° 01’.441N 076° 41’.991W, about 3pm, tied
up and went for an exploratory walk around town. Didn’t find any Chinese restaurants
though.
Seems to be a pretty laid back town. The dockmaster was encouraging us to buy a
cocktail at his Tiki bar and suggested that we ask for it to go in which case
we could wander around town with it, at least until we got to the next bar…
