Day 42, Sunday, May 25, 2008

We got up early to take showers and enjoy free doughnuts and coffee. Then we pulled the boat forward on the fuel dock to get a pump out. Once done with all that, we finally got underway at 0830. Tides and current seem to be a little more favorable today. We tried to find anchorage space in the area near the marina in Beaufort, but the wind and tide combination didn’t give us any safe anchorages. So, we back tracked a little and anchored south of Beaufort next to the high rise bridge.

We enjoy dinner and turn in as the run tomorrow is about fifty miles to a popular anchorage in Church’s Creek.

Location: Anchorage south of Beaufort, SC at MM 540. Boat distance traveled, 51.9 miles. Time in actual transit, 9.5 hours. Top speed 8.6 mph, average speed 5.6 mph.
