  • We will provide tide info, bridge clearance and opening schedules.  If you boat requires an opening, we will not leave you behind.
  • There will be opportunities to use the head on your boat, we will slow down occasionally for this.
• Help you get your Garmin electronics setup to record a track on our way up, making navigation home easier if you decide to run ahead or behind the group.
• Put together a list of restaurants with menu choices and phone numbers.
• Show anyone how to use Uber, a ride sharing app that makes getting around Beaufort by car very easy.
• Make time and suggest a place to purchase fuel for the run home.
• Provide you with a suggested list of items to bring with you.
• Provide you with plenty of free time to enjoy Beaufort!
• Answer any of your questions…or try our best!
