SV Will Sea Delivery to Charleston

The sailing vessel Will Sea needs to be moved from Bucksport, SC along the Atlantic Intra-Coastal Waterway (ICW) to Charleston, SC where she will get some needed improvements before being sailed up to Annapolis in the spring. The challenge will be avoiding all the very shallows parts of the ICW. There's one swing bridge we will need to time correctly. Being very conservative we've decided to break this short trip into three sections. Day 1 we'll head from Bucksport, SC to Georgetown, SC where we'll grab a transient slip. The next day we'll do the longest leg from Georgetown, SC to Isle of Palms, SC. Then there's just a short stretch the next day to get to Charleston which should allow us to pass through the shallowest section at high tide with plenty of the depth to spare. The boat needs some prep work before Wayne and I attempt the voyage so I'm heading down a few days early to get things ship shape. I'll end up staying in Charleston for several days while I arrange to get estimates for all the various improvements I want to make to the boat. Between this nasty flu I've had and the distance, scheduling all of this has proven challenging. I'm interested to see what surprises wait for us.

The Day I Decided to Buy A Sailboat

A few friends asked me at the beginning to write about this boat acquisition experience. But I haven't written anything in many ages. The words just don't flow and honestly I've been avoiding it. Quite a few months have gone by now. Recently, the topic was raised again so I've decided to bite the bullet and make the attempt.  But writing feels off. Something is missing but I don't know what. It's as if the words just don't taste right. It's strange to think that I only started sailing ...Read More

Ride Report

This was a really compelling ride through quite a few forest service roads. Woodstock Tower Road is open. The tower there is a short walk and the view is so worth it. Other notable roads: Crisman Hollow Road (FR724) which is a long easy largely straight tree tunnel road, Little Dry River Road (SR 818), Rough Run Road which is a little rough with six water crossings but all were largely dry this time through, West Side Road which is really nice, Dunkle Hollow Road (FR 227) which verges on ...Read More
