Scooter and crew are just finishing a 3 day stay at Port Royal Landing Marina in Port Royal, SC. We had planned to leave yesterday, but, in checking the nautical notams, herein after referred to as LNM's, we found that the only opening bridge that we needed to go thru in Georgia, was closed. So, we parked another day, called them in the early am, found that the bridge was working well enough to get by, looked at the gooey fog and rain, and decided to stay put for today.
We'll be out of here in the morning headed to the Herb River in GA. Sounds fascinating, eh. We'll wind by Daufuskie Island, the Savannah River, Hilton Head, Tybee Island, cross Calibogue Sound, and anchor in the Herb River; that be the plan, anyway. weather is supposed to cooperate, one can only hope.
Our time in Port Royal and Beaufort was pleasant; lots of history, pretty old homes, friendly folks. It is interesting to be experiencing the tidal swings again. The ramp to the office will be level in the morning, and an eight foot climb/descent, by the afternoon. watching the channels appear, and disappear enroute is a blast as well.
We are looking forward to the GA section of the trip. Very lightly populated, twisty, turny channels, but all with its own raw beauty. Probably end up in Brunswick, GA sometime in the next few days. We'll keep you posted, thanks for stopping by. catch you on the flip side.

A story of indeterminate length, of two people & an old boat, setting off on an adventure as they cruise South again on the AICW, destination as yet to be decided. We'd like to share with you our fun times, our scary times, what we learn and what we see. Join us as Scooter meanders South over the next few months; we'd be pleased to have you on board.
