Thought I recognized the color of the water. Then I looked and saw you're in NC. What part? We're on the Bay River just outside Oriental. unfortunately my C26 is in the water but in "project" status. If I walk about 10 more steps past the 26 I get on my Venture 22 that's ready to sail. Guess which one wins?

Ahh, I love Oriental. This is actually Lake Waccamaw, which is kind of in between Wilmington and Whiteville. It's one of NC's largest fresh-water lakes. It's a nature-lovers paradise and due to it's proximity to the coast often has great winds. I couldn't pass up a 70 degree day in November with 10-15 winds!
We have a small sailing club there and I keep the 22 on a mooring there. I'm hoping to venture into salt water next year now that I feel really comfortable with the boat in a variety of conditions.
If you or anybody else on here near us ever wants to check it out, consider it an open invitation!
