Since we are a week out I figure I should get a head count and see who is launching from where so no one gets left behind. Below is how I have it now if someone is not on one of the lists below please let me know and if your plan is different then what I have below let me know as well. I will get @Andy S to reach out to those launching from Charleston to get you his number to stay in communication the morning of if anyone is running behind and I will reach out to those launching from Myrtle once we have it a confirmed.

Launching from Waccawache in Myrtle Beach at 6:30 am

@veedubtek

For those not sure what Morris Island lighthouse is here is a decent video,

Today looking at the forecast for next weekend, we should have good weather and hopefully good seas to be able to go check out the lighthouse by boat on Sunday.
That's looks really neat Andy. Very cool footage so thx for the share. I would definitely like to see that if possible Sunday.

@JROD are you going to trailer down to Myrtle and make a few days on the water with us?
Don't know yet, may go down ICW near U all's SP on Friday stay overnight then meet up with U all in AM, or may get Froggy and ride all the way. Robert if I trailer down Sat Am is there parking space at Ur launch location? Thanks.

I have to look at the full situation @JROD but if you come down Friday I may even have a room you can steal at my place as the fam is going to Charleston Friday night. I think @veedubtek is crashing here as well if he makes it down.

That is correct, sir. We'll be abusing your refrigerator and Victor's cigar stash Thursday and Friday evenings.

Great! Thanks! I am a bit behind and hoping to head out to coast next Tuesday or Wednesday to get ski checked out, clean and make all ready for the run. Leaning on heading down ICW Friday afternoon. Any recommendations of where to pull in and leave ski on water near U overnight? Thanks again!

My boat is in dry stack but I will have to call it out Friday afternoon for it to be out in the morning. I will call the marina and ask them if I can tie the ski off behind my boat Friday night it shouldn't an issue.

Well @veedubtek had a full weekend this coming week but was going to try and make it but he just informed he has suffered a torn Labia so he will be unable to make it. I hope you have a swift recovery bud I'm sure I will see you in a couple weeks.

I told him to keep those warning stickers on the back of his ski but he didn't listen.

Could it be that a car show has gotten all of his attention? Cheating on us with a car? It has to be torn...say it isn't so?

It's actually Brad Paisley in Raleigh Saturday night, and car show Sunday. Brads my hometown homeboy, so I gotta go. And, it's one of 2 annual car shows I never miss. Probably the only 2 I go to, really. Was still gonna go anyway, even had the skis all loaded up ready to take with me when we leave the camper in the morning, but finally came to terms with the fact that I will need some sleep next weekend. So, we'll just have to plan this trip again soon.

Born and raised in Wheeling. ;) Well, not born, but close enough (military brat). Most of my family is still there.
