Delivery.

An interesting word in English to describe the travel of a boat from one place to another. Usually with an absentee owner who has not the time, since he has to work to afford other people and his own boat. "Convoyage", is the word in French meaning the same thing.
I like deliveries, for it describes for me deliverance of a certain discipline routine where there is very little leeway for error, mistakes and  tolerance in my day to day life.
This time, a trip from Newport to Fort Lauderdale. This is the period, like last year where on the same boat I took on the journey.
The passage is regulated by the rise of the sun and the length of the day to sunset, to start all over again after a few hours.  So there it is.

Off Norfolk. Sunset

Before Hatteras. Sunrise.

Hatteras. Blowing 40knots in gusts.

Sunset in Charleston.
Carolina Yacht Club.
For a couple of days.

                                                                                                                                                           

Sunrise leaving Charleston and the last Sunset before Ft. Lauderdale.

                                                                                      

The best part of the trip was to have my daughter aboard.
