Suggestion--in my travels Great Lakes/Fl found that Charleston/Fernandina is good outside trip. Leave daylight, arrive same. If you catch bad weather in Charleston, can still do ICW to Port Royal,
anchor easily Factory Cr.(just before Ladys Is Br.)When weather's right, go thru bridge in AM and stop at "free" day
dock just S. side of marina. Nice to stop, shop, meal,
laundry. Pickup fuel/water on way out 5PMish and go for Fernandina. PS Port Royal outbound is supposed to be nasty in weather. Don't know, I had a great sail. PS trip was last Fall season.
