| The marina at Belhaven is located right downtown |
We used the courtesy car today to visit the nearby Winn Dixie in Belhaven. We were pleasantly surprised at how great the store was. It was well stocked and the produce was better than we’ve seen at most other stores along the ICW. We mostly bought just the odds and ends we needed for the rest of the trip north, not a lot.

| And there’s a place to gather |
Before coming back, we toured Belhaven and the marina there. Today it was mostly empty. The Dockmaster said the majority of the boat left that morning. The docks are fixed but they are just about at water level compared to Dowry Creek where the docks are level with the top step on your boat. I prefer the docks at Dowry.

| Back at Dowry Creek, there’s no room |
Returning to Dowry Creek, we found the place was packed. There were people on the waiting list to get in. I guess the word has gotten out. The bad weather may be unlucky for boaters but it’s a boom to marinas. Even when 15 boats leave on Friday, there’s an equal number of boats going north and stopping tomorrow night at Dowry Creek. The flow northward has started! For us, it’s Alligator River Marina and then Coinjock the next ay.
