That will be a great trip. I did the same except went to Beaufort in June. I would like to do again but that weekend is the first Citadel home game. |

I have a 22 revenge with a black top. I see your post on charlestonfishing.com also. Do you go offshore alot? I would like to hook up and make that run again, also follow you offshore some time as well. I mostly go to the 60 and try to fish there. |

The trip was great!!! 81 miles one way,beautiful southern lowcountry at its best!! We stopped at downtown marina in Beaufort for fuel and walked to a restaurant for lunch. The public dock was full sat. so the attendant let us dock at their place long enough to eat. Thats service!!! |

How long did the trip from Charleston to Beaufort take you? From where in the Charleston area did you leave? Thanks. |

I have heard that trip is kind of tricky, by that I mean following the ICW. Did you find it hard and did you use any maps? |

You're up EARLY!!! Yes, I bought the charts from Boaters world..$17 ea. Its well marked except one sound where the distance between markers is so great there is a compass heading on the chart. Other than that its not a problem. I think that part is on the other side of Beaufort, I dont have the chart here. I reccomend getting the chart but if you want some more particulars (marker #'s,etc.) e-mail me. |

It does get a litle hairy near monkey island. I went from Chas SC to Litchfield Beach ( Reserve Marina on ICW) a couple of weeks ago, it is just as pretty as the Beaufort trip, and a lot more straight. Reelescape are you going to buy the 15? If not let me know I may want to look at it. |

reelscape1 - I'm in Germany right now supporting the C-17's, that's how it's so early. Believe me I wouldn't get up at 2am unless the house was on fire. Anyway, I get home next friday and can't wait. I'll have a few days off when I get back and might try the trip then. My buddy bought the charts so I probably borrow his for the first time. |

Post how the trip goes...there are a couple of good restaurants just downtown. Ask the dock-hand to reccomend one, I think we went to Oscars or Ollies, something like that. Good food and COLD beer!!! |
