We DIDN'T PLAN this stop | The Great Loop on a Shanty Boat

In this episode, we’re back on the ICW, leaving Oriental, North Carolina and heading north toward Elizabeth City. After a week at anchor, it’s time to get moving again — calm crossings, cutting corners in shallow water and an anchor fix. This leg of the adventure takes us through the Pamlico River, into canals and protected water, with quiet anchorages, a surprise seafood stop -- and a side trip inland that didn’t quite go to plan. Full tanks, charged solar, a happy beagle, and no rush — this is slow travel the way it’s meant to be. If you enjoy ICW cruising, real-life boat adventures, shanty boating, and unfiltered life on the water, you’re in the right place.
