@robert843 I might be interested in this if I can get some logistical issues solved on my end. Can you detail what this run would look like?
If we ran the ICW it's somewhere between 90-100 miles but it would pretty much all be smooth and could likely run 40+ mph the whole time. Distance is shorter if we ran offshore but we would likely be traveling slower then that.
Where would you launch? I would like to look it up on google maps. I think that would be a great start to the weekend and would really like to do it.

I will keep you posted once I figure out if I can pull that off for sure or not but I likely will be able to as long as the weather is ok.
Is this the name of your boat or your offspring ?
Hahaha! I didn't think about that. LBB is what I call my girlfriend's son. He is the cutest lil man. I don't have any kids of my own, but I'd claim him. Been trying to see how he'll do in the boat before we would try to take him on something like this. The 17th is his birthday so I'm trying my best or else I'm gonna have to cancel.
@deancastor maybe you can come up to Charleston and join us on the boat trip. Next spring we have been talking about doing a run from Charleston to Hilton Head, we will definitely get with you then.
I'm booked at the Courtyard Marriott in Mt Pleasant but I do not think there is an official hotel for all. I got a rate of $159 there a few weeks back and there is a large doctors office attached to their parking lot that is closed on Saturday so I figured that would leave plenty of room to park my boat.
Thanks, I'll look at the one. The Holiday Inn Mount Pleasant has something similar, there is a office building behind the hotel that shares the parking lot, so Friday night and Saturday night there should be plenty of parking there too.
You can pay a little extra for the ability to cancel which is what I did, plus I added breakfast.
