Just another beautiful house on the ICW - Southport, NC

Osprey Nests were everywhere on this stretch of the ICW through South Carolina

Almost every nest we saw had at least one Osprey in it, this one had two

The river was a dark brown color from the tannins in the trees

This osprey is looking right at you

The nests are enormous

An osprey is also called a fish hawk

We have seen them pluck flounder off of the bottom of the river

We are nearing Myrtle Beach

The houses keep getting bigger and bigger the closer we get to Myrtle Beach

The Jungle Princess a huge tour boat out of Myrtle Beach

This was a gondola to get you across the ICW to a golf course, pretty cool!  

This is the only Pontoon Bridge on the entire ICW, it is a relic and there are plans to do away with it.  It is at Sunset Beach, NC

Holden Beach, NC - The Provision Co.

Mike decided we would not be going offshore and is putting the sail cover on the mainsail 

Sunrise Easter morning

Looks like God made it an extra special sunrise

He sent dolphins for us to enjoy

What a spread

This is an historic home in Southport, NC - It was inhabited by a Captain who was the most famous Confederate pilot for the blockade runners during the Civil War

Some of the less interesting scenery - Wilmington, NC

Mike wound up taking the sail cover off - we left the ICW at Masonboro Inlet to sail to Beaufort

Yeah, we are out of the ICW! 

Another night passage and we are back in Beaufort

Our last sunset of the trip

Back to work in Beaufort
