    Scott here. Today we traveled from Carolina Beach to Morehead, NC. I have to admit it was really nice setting the autopilot and just going. Check the chart every 15 minutes to make sure we are on track, but one of us is always on watch make sure we don’t hit anything. The weather was…

    Scott and his crew departed Myrtle Beach Yacht Club for Carolina Beach Municipal Marina Mooring Field. They opted for a mooring ball due to unreliable anchorage. The journey went smoothly despite rough waters near Southport. They were pleasantly surprised to find acquaintances nearby and enjoyed a peaceful end to the day. Overall, it was a…

    Scott here. Leaving Georgetown, SC was fairly easy along with the travel day. We made it to Myrtle Beach, SC with plenty of time. The night went really good, the featured image is our anchor tracking for two nights. Rita took a ton of photos and we saw about that many turtles as well. We…

    Scott here. Just to throw it out there, feel free to follow us on Facebook as well. Just do a search for MY Happiness or Surf & Turf Retirement. Today was a pretty long day, not our longest day, but long enough. We made it to Georgetown to walk the dog at a nearby beach…

    The post describes a travel day from Fenwick Island to Charleston, SC, marking the 71st day of travel in a boat. The journey involved anchoring, navigating shoals, and passing through Elliott Cut with favorable timing.

    Scott here, trying to get caught up again! Today (well technically yesterday but lets pretend I typed this yesterday!) We went to church and had a great service said good-by to family and went back to the marina. It was great borrowing a truck, we were able to get some groceries and make it to…

  • Travel Day April 5, 24 (Daufuskie Landing to Hilton Head) Travel Day #69

    Scott here again! This will get us caught up to today. We had a planned very short day. We are staying in a marina and wanted to get to the marina earlier than later to get our money’s worth. Sounds cheap, but I like to think is smart. And, I’m frugal not cheap! The weather…

    Scott here. After the fact post here. I fell behind! This day we traveled from Rainbow Bend anchorage to Daufuskie Island and the New River anchorage. The day was simply crappy. Raining, windy, overcast and cold. We saw very few boats. We only had one scary part, a small river called Hell Gate. The channel…

    Scott here. Late on this sorry! We decided on a short travel today. Initial plan was to go from Jacksonville to Jekyll Island, but we decided we wanted to stop at Cumberland Island. The joys of no super detailed plan, we can make changes as we see fit! Good thing this was a planned short…
