We would
need a place where we could leave it unattended for long periods
though.


Charleston City Marina and The Harborage At Ashley Marina are in a
heavily-guarded no-wake zone in the Ashley River near where the ICW turns
left to go South out of the harbor. There is a fair current, but no
waves to chafe...unless there's a hurricane, of course.

The Harborage is now a condo, but they still rent out slips for the
suckers....er, ah, "owners"...(c;

Another, cheaper place to leave it would be Buzzard's Roost Marina where
the ICW meets the Stono River on the southern end of Elliott's Cut away
from the bustle of the city.

BRM has no webpage....island folks still getting used to phones...(c;
City and Ashley have free WIFI with your slip (or without it). City gave
up trying to charge, what with all their customers logging onto Ashley's
free wifi....(sigh)

Let me know when you're bringing it down. I'll take care of it while
you're away. Worrying over one more won't make any difference...(c;

Of course, you'll want to meet CORA:

The countdown clock to CHARLESTON RACE WEEK 2007 says 8 hours from now!

From Lionheart, we, sometimes, can spot the tops of their masts far ahead
of us! Of course, with our handicap figured in, we may win the race if
we get to the dock before the race committee has given up and all gone
home....On Monday....(c;

Of course, if, instead of lollygaggin' around in the freezing cold headed
NAWTH to Canada....you were to head SOUTH, now, to the Holy City, you'd
be here in plenty of time to participate in the next event:
