We had a good visit in Norfolk with a lot of work done by everyone. We loaded several trucks worth of supplies that were provided by the US Navy and MARAD, including some new gym equipment and extra lifeboat engines.  Loading the propeller blades on was probably the most interesting evolution of the visit. Some students had the opportunity to tour some Navy and MSC ships and many took advantage of the buses to the beach. Today was spent making our way out of Chesapeake Bay and heading off-shore before the turn North to NY for fuel.
