Launched at Morris Landing on Core Sound this week to explore the "Thorofare" a narrow waterway that connects Core Sound to a series of Bays off the Pamlico Sound. Morris Landing is a nice place to sail into for breakfast or lunch; good piers to tie to & old fashioned burgers, etc. I wanted to test it's ramp as a start point for a 2 day trip around Cedar Island (30-40 NM). Its boat ramp is a challenge for the single-handing sailor. Need to use your tongue extension & bring all of your fenders to protect from over-hanging concrete walls. Better to use ramps at either Cedar Island ferry or further south on Core Sound
