We're in Kiawah Island, SC


We left Charleston this morning at 8:00 am after being beaten up by 40+ mph winds on the dock for 2 days. We befriended an Australian couple that had the misfortune of having their 47 ft. Catalina put on the outside of the face dock. Every boat out there was being beat against the pier. They had circumnavigated and I could only be envious of their adventures. We arrived in Bohicket this afternoon - it's 7 miles up the North Edisto River (which is also a nice inlet). It is absolutely gorgeous here and everything is within walking distance - 4 restaurants, a spa, a gourmet grocery store, etc. Slips here are for sale but reasonable in comparison to New Bern - a 45 ft. slip with all amenities is $158K. Tomorrow we hope to launch the dinghy and explore the upper parts of the creek. Tonight there was a dolphin and her baby that were swimming around our boat right in the slip. Awesome!
