St. James Plantation, SC

Osprey Marina full with transients, the gas dock is full overnight

Up early, had breakfast and I return the Enterprise car and Linda cleans the boat. We left the Marina at 10:00 AM. Not one of my better exits from a dock. Fortunately there were other transients there, who are motivated to protect their boats, who came to our assistance. 



 

Barefoot Landing Swing Bridge

Golf Course Trams, no longer working, have not moved since we passed here in the Fall

Linda driving

The temperatures were rather cool most of the day. No matter where we were on the ICW the current was against us most of the day and the wind was on our nose the whole day. 

The Rockpile

 The Rockpile is a narrow section of the ICW that required a lot of blasting to dig.  So to save money they left it narrower. This is not the section of the ICW you want to meet a barge coming at you.

One of my favorite stocks

We did not get into St. James Plantation until 7:15 PM. We had stopped here two years ago going south to hide out from two days of freezing temperatures, so it was really nice to be here in comfortable temperatures out of the wind. We had dinner outside at the restaurant at the marina.
