Myrtle Beach, SC on to Southport, NC

The next part of the ICW is known for being a bit more treacherous, commonly called "The Rock Pile." Once again the Bob 423 tracks were helpful for navigation in the shallows. Bob is a sailor that frequently posts updates of his own tracks so to help lead the way for the less experienced boaters. Our trip was 37 miles and once at the Myrtle Beach Yacht Club, we enjoyed the pool at the marina, but did not feel the need to go see the beach town. We actually could see the buildings on the beach from the ICW.
We left the next day and headed 37 miles towards North Carolina. Most of the ICW appeared to be man made and we passed by some pretty blue water coming from the Atlantic, like at Holden Beach, NC.
