We left our anchorage on the Beaufort River and headed
south. Immediately we came upon Port Royal
followed by Parris Island. After
crossing Port Royal sound into which the
Chechessee and Broad Rivers feed we could see Hilton Head Island. We then traveled the Calibrogue Sound to Haig
Point on Daufuskie Island. I have read
that Daufuskie means "da first
key" of South Carolina. I don't
know if this is true or not, but it does help me pronounce the name more
accurately. We took Ramshorn Creek to the New River, then
took Walls Cut to the Wright River. Then
Fields Cut took us to the Savannah River into Georgia while passing Jones
Island, Bird Island and McQueens Island.
It sure felt good to be in our home state!!! 575 miles on the ICW and we made it to Georgia. Next we took the Elba Island Cut to the Wilmington River and into Thunderbolt. Just past Thunderbolt we turned into the Herb
River to stay for the night.
