From Tom Point Creek we headed to Beaufort, South Carolina. There is a Beaufort in North Carolina pronounced "BO-fert". Here in South Carolina it is pronounced like "beaut..tiful" or "beYOUfert", as they like to say. This IS a beautiful town and waterfront, unfortunately for us, it was only a stop for diesel and a nights rest. It was also an unplanned cruiser reunion. Tom and Laura (Muskegon, MI) on SV "Cool Hand" were tied up next to us and Tutty and Muriel (Toronto area) on SV "Mistress", were here as well. It was like having our own greeting committee. It was great to see them all again. Everyone was still happy and enjoying their journeys. We had just a little time to drive the marina courtesy car for a propane fill up and a few groceries.
New friends Wayne and Heidi Crann (Toronto) on SV "Courageous" were here in Beaufort. We met them previously at Dowry Creek, NC where we waited out our 3rd "Nor'Easter" together. They have been following our blog since before we met. They found us on the internet and recognized our "Chasseur" from the blog and introduced themselves to us. We had dinner together in town.

| We get excited every time we see a porpoise. They visit us everyday. We never get tired of them. They are playful and curious. |
