CT to FL Day 22
North Myrtle Beach, SC to Georgetown, SC
We left Barefoot Landing Marina this morning at 0800 and headed south. Destination for the day planned as Georgetown, SC.

Current WAS our friend today... we had it with us 95% of the day with only a one short run where we slowed down a bit at the far north end of the Waccamaw River. Speeds varying between 6.5 knots to 8 knots.... very nice for one engine running.

We did make a stop at Bucksport Marina to stock up on sausage... love their sausage!!!

We arrived to Georgetown at approximately 1545 and were docked securely at the Georgetown Public Dock at 1600. Our position tonight is N32°21.895', W079°16.969'. We traveled today for 8 hours covering 45.0 nautical miles averaging 7.0 knots.
