    • Georgetown, South Carolina – A GREAT Port of Call

      Every since I authored the first edition of my “Cruising Guide to Coastal South Carlina and Georgia” back in 1985, I’ve been recommending Georgetown to my fellow cruisers. Good marina facilities, GREAT restaurants, a dream-like historic district, and many other attractions, make this a port of call NOT to be missed. And, Georgetown is one of our newest SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS’ NET SPONSORS!

      Hi Folks:
      We had 3 beautiful days of cruising the ICW since we left Writesville Beach.We arrived in georgetown SC on saturday afternoon and took a slip at the Boat Shed Marina. We have been traveling with a couple on a sail boat, we both make about the same speed. They have done the trip 5 times previous to this year and are familiar with a lot of good places to anchor and dock. They are Bob and Lynn Guyott from Maine. We have to stay in Georgetown at least until Thursday because of gale force winds south of us. We have calculated that we will not get to Florida before we want to return home so we have made arrangements to leave the boat at a marina in Brunswick GA. The place was recomended by a couple of boaters, including Bob and Lynn who will be staying there for the winter and will keep an eye on our boat for us.
      Georgetown is a very old city and has lots of nice historic buildings and houses, they also have a waterfront walkway. In colonial days large amounts of rice and indigo were grown here and exported to England and Europe.
      The weather remains unseasonably cold and we have been having rain
      on and off for the last two days with heavy overcast in between.
      So that’s all the latest news, I will write again when I can.
      Tom and Elizabeth
