Day 5 of 5: Wind continued to blow strong, and we made it to Morehead City, North Carolina in the afternoon! Over 480 miles, roughly 114 hours, two exhausted sailors and a good ol' boat. #svwild #sailing #liveaboard #optoutside

Day 4 of 5: Today things got... Spicy. Wind picked up, and we are flying. This morning our boat went as fast as I'd ever seen it - over eight knots (9.2 mph)! Our normal speed up until this point was around 3.5 knots. I tried to manage my panic, while Eric enjoyed the thrill of sailing. By evening we were riding 2 meter waves, and a pod of dolphins enjoyed them with us for over an hour. As long as this keeps up, we'll make good time to NC. The adrenaline seems to be overriding sleep deprivation well enough, and I nap whenever I can. #sailing #liveaboard #neverstopexploring #ocean
