Underway to Charleston

We actually pushed away from the dock in Isle of Hope, Georgia and got underway this morning. Yesterday, Memorial Day, we managed to get some mechanical help and a fellow small enough to crawl behind the starboard engine. The starter now works and life is good again.
Cruising north about 110 miles, we pushed hard, trying to make up some of the lost time. The problem is there are some many slow and no-wake zones where your speed is restricted to about 6 miles per hour. The views are of the Georgia and South Carolina low country and marsh grass as far as you can see. We didn't take any interesting pictures, although Judy keeps trying to snap a picture of dolphins which we see all the time. She's alway too late and the pictures are of just a splash in the water.
