Sat May 11 We went 93 miles in 10.5 hours with great currents behind us so we were surfing along. WENT into swamp areas with tree lined channel but trees in water. Ended up at a slightly better than Hobbies Fish Camp (was on Tem Tom) marina in the swamp area with trailer camp and boats place called Bucksport Marina and Restaurant. But they had a flood from Florence and restaurant no more but had snacks and bar. Big opening night of music under the shelter/bar open air pole building. Very LOUD band till 1100PM just outside boat. Don't look for town of Bucksport on map as maybe only few houses and the new Dollar General they are very happy about. We were told not good idea for us to walk the swamp road over there at dusk.
Today May 12 going about 60 miles only to Southport likely as due to storms likely so short day probably. Went behind Myrtle Beach and now north going along behind sand dunes and inlets. We will end up about 20 miles south of Topsail Island. Couple interesting swing bridges on way and a lot of damaged places from floods from Florence.
