EYE Bound for Crown Point

Thanks to Mike "Let's Ride Bikes" Rhodes for helping keep up with EYE on their journey to Belhaven, NC. Here are some pictures of the crew and the new boat on the water.


Having made it safely thus far on her way to Crown Point Marina in Virginia, her shorthanded crew of Adam and Alan are preparing to finish the journey this weekend. They will be joined by fellow NORSA members Alan Witt and friend in Coinjock, NC who will accompany them to Virginia where they will be reunited with Ian who will help oversee the hauling. After navigating the shallow Alligator river, we will make our way north via the ICW avoiding the dismal swamp canal. 175 miles of canals and shallows remain and an attempt will be made to keep everyone posted.

A new member is also added to the crew. A SPOT tracker unit on loan from Alan's Mom will help to keep tabs on us as we progress.

With any luck you will be able to see the crew's current position in almost real time by CLICKING HERE. The SPOT unit will send position updates every 10 minuites while underway. Stay tuned.
