B & B Seafood - at their dock

Their dock can only handle two boats

Once we got started, it made more sense to push on to B and B Seafood. The water was perfectly flat, there was no wind and we had full sun in the cockpit. It was a perfect day for traveling. The shallow spots were, well, shallow! Dawho was not too bad but we did pass over a 5.2 MLW spot. Watts Cut was a little shallower yet with a 4.1 MLW spot. The passages seem have less water than I remember in the spring. Maybe it's the lack of rain and east winds. We didn't have any problems since we had plenty of tide behind us, over 3 ft most of the way.

It's not a big place but they do have shrimp!

B & B Seafood is located just  before the Ashepoo-Coosaw cut off which is itself one of the shallow spots on the ICW. We will pass through it with a 2 ft tide and see what happens. Meanwhile, I paid the $25 for the dock (no electric unless you have a very long extension cord) and  bought a pound of fresh shrimp. As we came in, one of their shrimp boats had just docked and they were sorting the shrimp inside - I got a fresh batch! We had shrimp for dinner!

Ours came from here

We will get a late start Saturday morning since we want to wait for a rising tide to tackle Ashepoo. We  could probably plow through at low tide but that's more excitement than I want to experience. With the prediction of sustained good weather, we decided to target Windmill Marina on Saturday which is on Hilton Head. You have to go through a lock to enter the marina, a new experience for us. We've never been there before.
