Day 192-193 – 4/13-14/24

Starting location: Morningstar Marina, Southport, NC.

Weather: 52 am, 73 pm, sunny, still windy but dying down a bit – Saturday 4/13. 50 am, 74 pm, sunny – Sunday 4/14.

Ending location: Marina at Carolina Beach State Park, Carolina Beach, NC. MM 297 AICW

General summary: The winds had calmed nicely, so we motored on to a state park not far away. This is a place more suited to smaller, shallower draft boats, so we felt welcome. There were some great hikes where naturally occurring carnivorous plants grow.
