On 6 August 2010, a friend from Haiti called to see if I wanted to take a trip on his boat from Fort Lauderdale, FL, to "somewhere North". I said Yes, and an hour later, Maura and I were packed and driving away from Key West towards Fort Lauderdale. The next morning, six of us (three couples) headed out of the Fort Lauderdale harbor and set a course for St. Augustine, FL. The ocean was calm and it was a nice 260 mile run. Next we stopped in Savannah, GA. Then we stayed on the inside route along the Intracoastal Waterway and our next stop was Beaufort, SC. The last stop was Charleston, SC. The next morning, all the women and one of the guys flew out to their jobs and homes. Maurice and I hung out in Charleston for a few days, made sure the boat (the 54'M/V Why Knot) was tied up properly, then drove back to Fort Lauderdale.
