Charleston – Home Port for the summer

We headed out at 8 AM to be sure we had higher water for the first part of the trip.  We had to travel 64 miles to St. John’s Yacht Harbor in Charleston.  We passed a number of homes with docks in this area.  The area is so marshy that they need to build very long walkways to their docks.  We decided we would not want to maintain docks this long.

We arrived at 2PM to our new home away from home.  The facility is very nice.  Great lounge area, laundry and restrooms.  There is also a pool we can use.  Our daughter and son-in-law (Rebecca and James) came with the grandson (Austin) to greet us.

I wasn’t long before Austin established his new roll on board ship! We spend the next few days cleaning the boat and getting stuff organized to return to Kentucky.  Austin came back out to help clean the boat.  We have traveled 2350 miles in 296 hours using 1978 gallons of fuel and 111 days cruising.  Wow!

 

We plan to make a few visits to check on the boat during the summer and then return in November to begin our next adventure.  We will begin to blog again when we are back on the water.

    Your Grandson is so Adorable he will be your next Captain tell Chris he will have to train him early so he can drive your Boat for you so you can sit back and enjoy watching him have a good time. Love your stories as you have made your way around the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean you will miss this seeing other Marinas and small towns.
