By late Friday, the Stream lost its influence on us and we traveling at 5.5 kts again. The chartplotter was happier with a much better ETA. Ann could hand feed Sammy a bit of tuna fish but she still was not drinking much. She spent most of her time in the berth. We scheduled a vet appointment after our arrival. We arrived at the Masonboro sea buoy at 1145 and tied up at Mona Black at 1400. Along the way, one of the boats that would participate in the in the Carolina Beach Parade of Lights passed us. We saw him later that night in full regalia and he looked great. We stayed in the boat for nearly a week cleaning, fixing, and tightening stuff. By the end, Sammy was doing pretty good. Vet said that she was weak but improving. Later we had her thyroid treatment completed with radioactive Iodine. We are now working on our Plan B. Stay tuned for the details.
