Favorable Seas take us to Charleston, SC

Another successful day on Bonnie Lee. We pulled out of St Augustine this morning at 6:55am to a beautiful sunrise and flat calms seas AGAIN! We set the one waypoint for Charleston Harbor which was 214 miles away. At 4:00pm on the nose we hit the inlet marker and came into Charleston Harbor. Seas were flat for the most part today, but by around 1:00pm the wind started to pick up and the seas began to build to 3 to 4 feet. They were not bad at all since it was a following sea, but tomorrow might be another story as the wind is supposed to shift to the north. We are tied up at Charleston City Marina tonight. It is hot as blazes here with temps in the low 90's and it feels like 100% humidity. I am wetter than the boat by the time I am done washing it.


A cargo ship this morning heading to Jacksonville.


This was a car carrier also heading to Jacksonville.


Not much to take pictures of today so....




You know I must have been bored to take a picture of a sailboat.
