| ON THE HARD |
Last Sunday we headed up to Ladys Island to Marsh Harbor Boatworks for a bottom job (painting of the bottom) and hull waxing. Because we still have the evil Jake, we needed to stay at a place that took pets. We found a house in old town Beaufort on VRBO. John has been going to the boat each day to replace zincs, bolts on the swim platform and to just oversee the work being done. Good thing, because John had bought a special paint for them to use. When he got there yesterday, they had started putting on another paint.

| MIKKI'S SCHOOLHOUSE DINER IN PORT ROYAL |
While here, we have very much enjoyed the local cuisine.....Dockside, Wren Bistro, Mikki's, and the Fillin' Station. Friends, Phil and Matilde from TMCA, have their boat here for a couple of months, so we have had a couple dinners with them, One afternoon, John and I saw a movie and had the whole theater to ourselves. We even kept our cell phones on....livin' on the edge!

ReplyDeleteWhat was that all for $5 Chicken Fried steak? Looks like the hard working John was very hungry!
I have shared data for 198 anchorages from my Trawler Yacht for USA East Coast & across the South Pacific on a new website called GoodAnchorage.com
ReplyDeleteIts a Free Crowd Sourced sharing platform for navigation information. They plug in 72 hour weather & a bunch of features for each anchorage shared by fellow mariners. Its pretty cool & did I mention it's FREE.
They have over 4000 anchorages globally & it's only new.
Wish I had access to their info before venturing out as it is so hard to access accurate & quality info in many parts of the world.
Would love to see other vessel owners share anchorages & experiences for fellow Mariners to benefit from.
I consider it my legacy & possibly the way forward to improve inaccurate charts & publications.
Cheers
