Finally, a break in the weather. We left at 7:15 am to fair skies, winds of 10 knots and waves of 1 foot. We arrived in Leland before noon. Last Dance and The Cooper arrived just before we did and as the day progressed, Spirit Dancer, Muddy Waters, Adagio and NautiNell also arrived (all Loopers!). The harbor was extensively renovated in 2009 and there were many slips available for us. Commercial fishing boats use the river just inside the harbor to proceed a short distance upstream to Fishtown to unload. Fishtown is a picturesque area with old fish shacks on both sides of the Leland River. The town of Leland is just a couple of blocks away. If the weather holds, we will move on tomorrow.
