Long Creek, north of Charleston.

We left Georgetown about 7:20. It's 56 degrees outside and 62 in the boat. We waited too late to head south. The cold weather is here! We love Georgetown and wanted to stay longer, but needed to travel when the weather, winds and tides are with us. We know we need high water when we go thru McClellanville, and should have it when we get there if we leave early.

Got to pay attention all the time.
In the past, I've said this house was playing hide-n-seek in the bushes. It won't be long until I won't see it at all.

We were traveling in a caravan by the time we got to McClellanville. We didn't have any problems. We knew they had dredged thru this area when we came north this spring, but didn't know if the hurricane could have caused changes. Thank goodness it hadn't.

We got to Long Creek at about 3pm. We traveled almost 48nm at 6.3kts. We have not stayed at this anchorage but it came highly recommended by Salty Turtle. And it seems to be a great place to stay. Thanks Vic and Gigi. We'll be back
 


I think this is beautiful. All the twists and turns.

 
This shows how close we are to Charleston
