Southport to Myrtle Beach Yacht Club

Rained almost the entire day.  Our feet were wet but the rest of us stayed warm and dry in our foul weather gear.  Saw some dolphins on the way south.

Some sections of the ICW were undeveloped and others were mile upon mile of homes lining the waterway.  We could see the Atlantic Ocean when we passed some of the larger inlets.  We could often see the homes and high rise resorts lining the Atlantic beaches.  

With all the people living on the barrier islands we had to pass through and under numerous bridges.  Some of these bridges were on a schedule and others would open on request.  One thing you don’t want to do is arrive at a bridge which opens on the hour a few minutes after the hour and have to loiter for a long time waiting for the next opening.
