Miles Traveled 46.8
Total Miles Traveled 3353
Day 232
We departed the marina early this morning to take
advantage of slack tide, a short period in tidal water when there is no water
movement up or downstream. The marina is
located on the Wilmington River with 8 foot tide swings, and we were boxed into
the end of an inside pier. We had three
boats behind us and had to back out of the marina about 100 feet before we
could swing around. Backing up a single engine trawler between other boats is not my
favorite mode of operation.
Timing worked to our advantage when we approached the
Savannah River, this container ship passed before we entered the river.
We had great weather crossing Port Royal Sound.
We saw several jellyfish today.
Harbour Town Lighthouse on Hilton Head Island.

Are you folks going to try to make it to Norfolk for the AGLCA rendezvous? So close, but it looks like so far to go leaving from Beaufort. We (Joe and Janet) will be there.
