Prince Creek


Isle of  Palms to Prince Creek Video

We are off the dock by 7:00am. Sunny but cool morning morning. Very windy, but out of the southeast. Currents and wind was mostly in our favor today. When we get on the lower Wacamaw River the current is against us, but with a partial head sail out we are traveling north more than one knot over our normal cruising speed of 6 knots. This is with nearly one knot of current against us. One gust hits us pretty hard and slide knocks my laptop to the floor which I thought was somewhat secure.


Flying up the Wacamaw

We detour off the ICW to Prince Creek an anchorage we have never stopped at before, very remote and quiet. Mark and Karen continue on a couple miles more to an easier, less remote anchorage. We drop anchor at 5:30 after doing 75 miles today.
