Passage from St. Simons Island, GA to Georgetown, SC

26 April 2012 | Out to Sea
Becky Nordstrom
Robert arrived from the airport around 9:00 pm tonight.Our friends Don and Judy have been aboard SeaQuell since Tuesday, helping me to get ready for our departure. We're sitting on go-- ready to cast off the dock lines and head out to sea.

As soon as Robert arrives, we set our course, and head out at 10:06 pm.

After a very lumpy ride out the inlet, we are once again in the Atlantic Ocean, destination Georgetown, SC.

Our overnight passage was uneventul-- calm seas and great wind-- averaging 7 knots.Slight problem with the auto pilot-- hand- steering most of the night.

Beautiful sunrise, coffee and danish to start the new day

Great sail on Friday-- winds around 15 knots, calm seas until dinnertime-- Problems with the autopilot continue, making for a lumpy ride. Both Judy and Becky are slightly seasick while trying to prepare dinner.

Robert and Don covered the night watch-- calm winds and seas, requiring assistance of the engines.

Arrived at Winyah Bay Inlet around 7 am. The dolphins are our welcoming committee-- What a beautiful sight!


Around noon, we anchor in the harbor at Georgetown. Head to the waterfront restaurants in search of lunch and Bloody Mary's. Lunch at Limpin' Jane's with very spicy Bloody's and good Margaritas. Life is good!!!
