Oct 31, Norfolk VA

Here we are in Newport just in time to enter the ICW. Raining tonight but its supposed to clear by the morning. This place is filled with warships of all types. Last night we spent at an anchorage and tonight at a marina.
I must say we have had a few cool nights on board. To top it off the diesel cabin heater tends to act up when its windy, just when you need it the most. We will be trying to get a different raincap to reduce the problem. The problem is trying to arrange a place in advance to pick it up, as it is an "special order" item. Thankfully we have two backup heaters, one from the engine, and another portable alcohol job.
