161: Lightning strike damage fixed; sailing to Cape Lookout after 3 weeks; Beaufort, NC

We had an indirect lightning strike that damaged our instruments and needed to be fixed before leaving Beaufort and heading for Cape Lookout. We were supposed to be North of the 36th parallel prior to 15 June, but we missed the deadline. We remained anchored in Taylor's Creek until Peter from Seacoast Marine Electronics was able to come and assess our damage. He was the ultimate in knowledge and expertise. After his assessment and the arrival of our new instruments, one of his staff members, Chris, came to complete the install. Once that was finished, on Wednesday afternoon, we gleefully moved the boat out to Cape Lookout to stage for our departure to Cape May on that Friday, 1.5 days later. We were ecstatic. The trip to Cape Lookout was uneventful though we did determine that the wind vane at the top of the mast was not functioning. We probably would need to replace the circuit board in the transducer. We had one with us, but that was too big a task to accomplish until we arrived in Cape May. We had other projects to complete like changing the oil and filters in the port side engine, installing our new hydrofoil on our outboard motor and preparing for our 2+ day passage north. What an amazing three weeks in Beaufort. The memories are everlasting, but we were ready to head North and discover new places. NEW TO OUR CHANNEL? We are Eileen and Brown Councill. Welcome to our channel and a glimpse into our NEW life adventure! 2020 was a year of uncertainty and change (for all of us, right?), but we overcame the challenges and decided it was time to chase our dream, to sail around the world! Did I mention that we have very little sailing experience? Before leaving Qingdao, China, our home of 4 years, we sold almost all of our earthly possessions and started our international search to find the right sailboat that we would call "home." After 5 months of unanticipated twists and turns, we found what we were looking for, a used Leopard 44' Catamaran located in St. Lucia. So, here begins our journey, filled with unmatched excitement and honestly, a bit of trepidation as well. We have much to learn as we travel the world on our floating home and we intend to document that journey and share it with you. We are so glad you have decided to join us, and we hope that you will find our story so compelling that it will inspire you to chase your dreams too!
