We pick up where we left off finishing a full day sailing Chesapeake Bay pulling into Norfolk passing our first free docks of our trip south to Florida and the Bahamas. Passing aircraft carriers and other navel vessels as we start the doing the ditch at mile marker 0 then get stuck circling in the dark waiting for a bridge to open before pulling into Top Rack marina. Also, We give a general out line of the length of the ICW, detail the free docks and go over the first hazard report.
