Charleston City Marina

Tuesday, April 24, 2012

Another beautiful, blustery day, the wind just does not seem to stop.

I forgot to mention this pass weekend was Charleston Race Week and there were boats from all over, some for Australia and England. The English boat across the dock from us changed crew and the new arrivals, were 14 English Army men, training to take the boat north to New York that boat was about 75feet long. We took off about 9:15 and chugged across Charleston Harbor dodging tour boats they were everywhere, the good news, once we entered the ICW it was pretty straight compared to the southern part of South Carolina.  We stopped early today because tomorrow will be a very long day.  I took the opportunity to make Beef Stew which will feed us for a few days. It smells sooo good cooking, and tasted just as good.  We crashed early because of the long day tomorrow, we need our rest and strength. We are in a great anchorage quiet and protected from the wind.
