7 December - Day #5. With the winds and seas finally down we head for Norfolk. We dodge a tug and tow, a freighter, and then for good measure, an aircraft carrier. The first order of business is to fill the fuel tanks (151.7g @ $2.37/g from Ocean Marine). After anchoring off Hospital Point we dingy into Portsmouth and go for a walk. Dinner aboard. At anchor in downtown Norfolk, VA. 36nm today and 141nm total. DBH
