> Best day so far. Weather was perfect. Sunny, mid 70's, and the current/wind was at our back the entire trip. We left Georgetown at 6:30, traveled 54 miles, and arrived at Myrtle Beach Yacht club at 1:30. The wind was blowing pretty hard (25mph) when we docked, which made my blood pressure rise significantly, but we made it into the slip without any major damage. As you can see from the pics above, the scenery along the ICW on this leg was quite unique. Lots of wildlife - We spotted dolphins, eagles nesting on waterway markers, turtles and snakes. There were huge cypress trees draped with moss, waterfront mansions with guest "cottages" larger than most of our homes, and a "swing bridge", which we had to wait on for several minutes until the operator swung it open for us. The marina here is just "ok", nothing fancy, and no courtesy car. Dan and I walked about a quarter or a mile to the "Kangaroo" convenience store to replenish our dwindling supply of Diet Dr. Pepper...
