I guess he stopped for supplies or supper … moved to North of Georgetown, SC, and is stopped at Butler Island on the Waccamaw River.
Great Loop Jon Boat
Mistakes were made.
I screwed up, not enough rest and ate too much during the day resulting in me falling asleep at the tiller. I failed me and you and put myself and others in danger. I apologize and it won't happen again.
Fortunately I slide 30' in a marsh with tall reeds. No damage to me, the boat or motor. I'm not sure what flew forward to hit it, but the screen of my chart plotter was destroyed.
My team got right to it, finding a group of local followers that would come drag my boat out of the woods.
It seemed like it only took minutes for two boats to show up. I had clared a walkway. We looked it over together and came to agree that the 7 full fuel tanks need to be removed.
Once the tanks were removed my boat came out with a relatively gentle pull. We reinstalled the fuel tank and off we went.
Quinton Clark had pulled the rescue team together from his home in St Louis. It seamed like moments later he found an identical chartplotter at a Bass Proshop on my route tomorrow.
So many awesome things happened... hopefully the Great People of today will post their story of our meeting, but I'm putting this phone down and getting some sleep.
Enjoy the photos, there maybe questions... I'm going to bed.
