Steamboat Creek - at anchor

 

When I walked Hoolie this morning, I saw this couple out on a pier admiring the sunrise

It was a short run today to Steamboat Creek, one of our favorite anchorages. It’s very protected and a public dock is nearby for Hoolie relief. There’s almost no wind and we’re swinging with the tide. 

We were visited by the “boat next door”, no motor!

We were able to go a Zoom meeting with our family using T-Mobile so we’re happy with the service so far. I will be publishing a summary of the speed of connections all down the ICW when I reach Key West. The speeds definitely are better than I remember with Verizon.

The oyster farm is still there but out of the channel

We are only a few miles from Watts Cut and only 23 miles from Ashepoo Coosaw Cutoff. We’ll get an early start so we’ll have several feet of tide passing through the two areas. The USACE surveys only show 4 to 5 MLLW. 

We’re headed for Beaufort, SC for tomorrow night as we continue our journey south.

It's been good to follow your journey south again. We have been traveling with very little phone and internet so it was nice to catch up. hopefully we will get to see you guys when you are in Titusville.
