the not so Dismal Swamp Canal


Working down near the NC state line when I saw this boat headed up the vine-covered banks of the Dismal Swamp Canal.  Making the run on SPARTINA, under power as the canal is lined by trees, is high of my list.

I suppose I should check out the weather for next week's sail but will wait until tomorrow.

Looks like a lovely Cape Dory cutter. Those are high on MY list! :-)

You are right. I didn't even think about the make of the boat, but definitely a CD, maybe the 31'. Talk about solid. steve

Be prepared to combat the deer flies if you take this route.
