Winyah Bay to Charlston SC.

Pete, Sunny-cool upper 50's
We travel to Georgetown and took a slip at Harborwalk Marina with two other cruisers from HON we are sailing with, S/v Autumn Borne & s/v Second Wind.
After taking time walking to town, seeing some of the local sites, and enjoying some of the local cuisine, we left to stage in Winyah Bay for an outside ocean hop on Thursday.
I must also make note that we found a great place to buy fresh shrimp right off the boat 👍😁 Mmmmmm!
One item I must make a special note of , As we walked through Georgetown we came across to the local VFW post which had a most memorable memorial to pay tribute to all her citizens that have served in every conflict. (See pic) it was by far the nicest we have ever seen.
It will leave a lasting impression on all who stop there, it certainly did for us!
After dropping the hook at our staging location on Winyah Bay at approx 12:15 hrs we enjoyed a relaxing afternoon with a few drinks and some nice hors d'oeuvres!
By 13:45 hrs there were six sailboats at anchor also waiting for the outside weather window on their way south!
