Southbound on the ICW
 

Having fun making these videos and posting them on YouTube.

This one is a section of our trip back in 2001 from MA to Florida. (It's
the only saved videos of being underway on the Navigator, so they will have
to do).

This one covers our arrival for an overnight stay in Norfolk, then pushing
southward through the various bridges, locks, etc.
We stopped again overnight at the famous "Coinjock" marina in North Carolina
to enjoy the steak feast, then moved on further south.

Cast:

My brother Bob .... amateur cameraman, chief cook and bottle washer ....
never seen in the video.
Older gent is Fred, a 72 year old boating friend who's lifelong dream was to
make the trip, so he was invited to go.
Young fella with black hair is Tom, Fred's grandson. Served as deck hand,
boat washer and beer go-for.
Me .... amateur boat captain and navigator.

Sights should look familiar to those that have traveled this section of the
ICW. I may make some more videos as it became more interesting the further
south we got.

Yeah, I think it was Eisboch who gave me the idea of buying a Nikon D50
for my wife's birthday. $4500 later, we still are buying new "must have
" equipment. He is a real pain in the ass.

Eisboch,
You might be having fun with YouTube, but you really haven't quite figured
out how to use your video camera. Your composition sucks.

See this link for some ideas as to how to more effectively use your video
camera for better composition and giving the real experience of boating on
the ICW.

Thanks, but I didn't do the camera work. It was done by my brother who
barely knew how to turn it on. He started out with the camera held
backwards, squinting into the front lens.

You mean, the non-existent consumer camera manufacturing companies in
the United States?

Harry, have you noticed that almost every single person here is sick
of your childish insults and many, many lies?

Good stuff. Quite a lot of traffic at Great Bridge Lock from the look
of things, and I could almost taste the prime ribs passing through
Coinjock. Looks like you were honking right along - hopefully no
sailboats, trawlers or animals were killed or injured in this
production...

So lets go down through Hobucken, Oriental, Adams Creek and Beaufort
next. :-)

I am working on Oriental and southward to Titusville as we speak (post).
Stops at Oriental, Isle of Palms, Fernandina Beach,
St. Augustine and Titusville. We skipped Georgia entirely and ran
"outside".

Same for us except for a relatively short stretch near Savannah last
year. The scenery is nice but the twists, turns and slow speed zones
add way too much time to the trip.

My wife "cruised" from Baltimore to Tampa the other day on a jet in two
hours and fifteen minutes, not even long enough to get hungry. No
twists, no turns, no slow speed zones.

Wow, that must have been quite the adventure. If you don't like
boating Harry, what are you doing here, and what do you use that 36
foot Zimmerman like lobster boat for?
