yeah down at the OBX they have free water and air at every gas station and at some beach ramps so I wouldn't be traveling too far from the beach to get the air and water. At the gas station you get the water but you have to bring your own hose nozzle and there is always a hose and water source at a house that we rent down there. I just want to make sure that sand and salt doesn't penetrate into the bearings and fitting more than usual
