Charleston, South Carolina to Beaufort, South Carolina

Saturday, October 31, 2009 HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!! BOO! Island Hopper departed the dock at Charleston City Marina this morning at 7:45 AM for an early morning journey. Skies were sunny, temperatures going into the mid 80's and the wind NE at 10. The fog came in and the visibility went to zero. There were strong currents that made the radar spin with the shift of Island Hopper's bow. These conditions lasted for 2 1/2 hours. The boats on the waterway formed a line and kept in contact to help each other keep the course. Around 11:00 AM the fog finally began to burn off. Island Hopper arrived at Downtown - Marina, Beaufort, South Carolina after a 69 mile trip.
