DAY 2: Weather conditions today heading down the ICW from Charleston to Hilton Head was 67 mostly cloudy with a small craft advisory through Thursday afternoon. What does that mean for tomorrow? Seas as high as 2ft. – Winds as high as 24 knots, and a chance of showers. Not a great day. The plan for Phil, Parker, Ryan and Beautiful Blue – is TBD.

This mornings view.

Boat trip food

Tonight’s Marina : Shelter Cove Harbour and Marina. Fun Fact: Shelter Cove is the “Largest Marina on Hilton Head Island.”

Dinner: Non negotiable. Phil requested ELA’S On the Water. Did not disappoint. Seafood Restaurant overlooking Shelter Cove Harbour with amazing water views, great seafood and just found out, Award Winning. Just not sure what award. They raved about the crab cakes, yellow fin tuna and short ribs. And can’t forget the ELA’S Calamari.

I can’t forget to mention The Dolphin’s that were surfing around the boat. Sadly, I don’t have pictures to share. Approximately 40 dolphins followed Beautiful Blue from Wrightsville to Charleston. Stand-by! Hopefully, they will see more through the journey- including pictures.
