Greg, You are very kind. This photo caught the evening when most of the charters etc, were headed back to get the next load of visitors. Marina was pretty busy most of the time.

Beautiful photo Winston – no surprise, since all of your photos are excellent.
Hope you enjoyed your time at Staniel. It is interesting to see how few boats were at the docks.

Good Reads for the Maritime Community – St Albans Press
A tale of modern day piracy on the high seas that had its roots in the second world war.
During the last days of World War II, two SS officers desert the German army and sail with two dozen hijacked tanks to a South American dictatorship. Decades later the same regime, facing a mortal threat, hires a British shipping executive and a former British army captain to perform a daring act of maritime piracy. As the two young Englishmen ally with the elderly SS men, the present mirrors the past – and a remarkable crime on the high seas races to an explosive conclusion.

Stop Feeding Wild Animals by Alex Rickert
Social media might make it seem cool to go viral with the next mind-blowing animal encounter, but feeding many wild animals, especially marine mammals, is already illegal.
Sharks + intentional feeding = a dangerous situation for all involved. CONTRIBUTED

We dump our sewer plant discharges into their water, then drain our streets and highways into their environment. But you are worried about humans feeding them???

Edenton’s Lighthouse and how it got here, Edenton, Albemarle Sound, NC
A longtime CRUISERS NET SPONSOR, historic Edenton always has an exciting calendar of events! Edenton is at the mouth of the Chowan River on the northwest shore of Albemarle Sound.
Hello!
This past week, August 7, was national lighthouse day.
And as the home of one of the last remaining Screw-Pile Lighthouses in the country, it’s an important day for us to share our treasured building with all who come by.
Do you know the story of how it came to be?
It’s a long, winding story filled with hurricanes, destruction, and more.
It’s almost as interesting as the structure itself.
It started life on the Roanoke river.
But, it found the perfect home on Edenton’s waterfront.

OCEAN TODAY (Back To School Videos) Featuring Hurricane Hunters & Satellites of the Sea
Satellites of the Sea; Observing the Ocean for Hurricane Research
New High Tech Ocean Robots Aid NOAA Scientists and Open Up Opportunties for Ocean Science CareersHow do we know how strong a hurricane will be and where it will make landfall? Some answers can be found in the ocean. Ocean observing instruments collect data about ocean conditions, such as temperature, salinity, and pressure. This information helps scientists improve forecasts of hurricane intensity and path, and to warn people who may be in danger.

Watch Hurricane Hunters Fly into the Eye of a Monster Storm! (2:30)
The job of a hurricane hunter is not for the faint of heart. This brave crew must fly straight into one of the most destructive forces in nature. Hurricanes are born over the open ocean. And while satellites can track their movement, meteorologists and researchers need to sample the storms directly to get the most accurate information about them. NOAA’s Hurricane Hunter fleet includes two P-3 turbo prop aircraft, as well as a Gulfstream IV jet. The P-3s fly through the storm, encountering devastating winds that can be over 150 miles per hour.
