Yorktown VA to mile 12 on the ICW 1/8 & 1/9.

We left Deltaville around 0800 and found a mooring buoy at Yorktown.  You remember that Yorktown was where Cornwallis surrendered to Washington.  Actually Cornwallis was allegedly ill and had his 2nd in command surrender to General Tom Nelson, Washingtons 2nd.  Got the dingy off the top of of the boat and into the water without too many problems.  Then I tried to get Mariner 15HP fuel line replaced and try to start.  Problem is the dead man ring was inoperative.
So raised up the dingy and moved to the Yorktown floating dock.  Marinas and docks run a lot more on the East Coast, instead of .75 foot your get to pay 1.75.  o wells.
Here are some of the historical pics from Yorktown.

Leaving Yorktown around 0800 we headed for Norfolk VA and the Mile zero start of the ICW.   Yes sir down the Elizabeth River by 4 aircraft carriers and about 30 ships of the line we started going under bridges of varying heights and to the locks.  Some of the sights along the way.  Pretty Seattle all the way from Yorktown, rainy and 40 degrees.  So after a long day of Chesapeake Bay, Norfolk Naval Yard, downtown Norfolk, 5 bridges and one 2 foot lock we rest.
