Interesting reading about Beaufort SC in today’s post. We spent Summer of 2020 in Beaufort in a marina (we live on a sailboat and travel some). While there, I read some of the Official Records on that area and it was quite active in blocking up Savannah and Charleston.
It was also interesting when we went through Port Royal sound in that we were passing over the same waters as Dupont’s navy when they took out the Confederate forts on St. Helena and Hilton Head.
Thanks for posting!
You sailed through history. Cool.
