We left the Isle of Hope Marina in Savannah for the trip northward to Hilton Head. It was a very pleasant trip and before we realized it, we had arrived in Hilton Head. Reservations had been made at the Harbour Town Yacht Basin with it red and white striped lighthouse. As late as 1931 the only access to the island was by water. Today the island is best known for its many golf clubs and has become a major tourist
destination. We were assigned to slip #8, very close to the lighthouse. All around were shops, restaurants and apartment buildings - giving one the feeling of being in a chic Italian haror town. When we arrived, it was low tide. Some hours later is was high tide - some 7ft difference.
