Wednesday March 13th. Today was the perfect day for cruising the ICW. Nana and Nandad woke to such peace and quiet today and had breakfast watching dolphin swim in the anchorage, the pelicans flying so low and the birds chirping. We started our day at 9.15 and our goal is to make it to SH Bahia Bleu where we will fill with diesel, water and pump out. We arrive there at 1pm and it takes about half an hour to accomplish our goal and then we get underway. It is such a great day we decide to continue on to SH Skull Marina MM 555 which is up Skull Creek the northern tip of Hilton Head SC. Once we cross the Savannah River we are now in South Carolina.
The picture above is the anchor rode drying out after a full wash down once we were tied up at the Marina.
You can see from the Nebo picture that our journey today was the typical twisting and curving of the Georgia Waterways. We cruise Ossaw Island, Skidaway Island, Wilmington Island, Daufuskie Island, and finally Hilton Head.
The Marina has a Freedom Boat Club so lots of pontoons and central console boats. A fun spot I am sure with several condos surrounding the marina and the Skull Creek Boathouse restaurant around the corner. At this time of the year it is really very peaceful and as the sunsets we can watch the rowers rowing against the current - quite the workout. We should make it to our destination by Friday St John’s Yacht Harbor Charleston so maybe we will celebrate St Patrick’s Day in southern style.
