Off the dock 0610.  Arrived in Myrtle Beach  1840

 

Stayed inside again today.  Grey, overcast, drizzeling rain.

 

Slowed down quite a bit coming through Charleston Harbor due to numerous "no wake" zones.

 

Saw a tow boat pulling about six barges with every kind of what looked like junk.  Expected to see Fred Sanford at the helm.

 

1645 N33 41.173  W 79 00.387 First bridge opening.  Socastee Swing bridge vertical clearance 11'.

 

Stopped at Harbourgate Marina.  Great place!  $1.95 deisel (lowest so far).  $1.25 per foot.  Gift bag with very nice embroidered hats, koozies, key floaties, cheese crackers, twiszlers, etc.  One for each of us!  

 

Debated going on the outside tomorrow.  Forecast does not bode well.  Although we told Bob that we would follow him out if he wanted, he had to know that there would be no frappachino's.
