Enrico, I came across a friend on the sail, Curt on his drascombe longboat. We rafted up together at Tangier Island one night and then again off Pocomoke Sound the following night. As Curt went to cast off the second evening he wanted to start his outboard to motor away to anchor. The snake had wrapped around his outboard. Harmless snake, but quite a surprise. Curt had motored in to raft up with SPARTINA, we are guessing that the warm outboard attracted him. steve
very nice and original photos! By the way, where did you find the snake? On board?

ReplyDeleteLovely photos Steve! Glad you had a great extended Fall cruise! I especially like that last photo. What a view to wake up to!
