50 Best Yachting Destination Towns in North America 2012 | Yachting Magazine

Excerpt from August 2012 edition of Yachting Magazine:
With a landslide victory, Beaufort, North Carolina is our 2012 winner!
If this seaside town was good enough for Capt. Edward Teach (aka Blackbeard), it’s good enough for us. The infamous seafaring swashbuckler and his famed vessel Queen Anne’s Revenge called this part of the mid-Atlantic home. Naturally, the North Carolina Maritime Museum here features an exhibit dedicated to this legendary baddie.
