Hello All,
I will be heading to Myrtle Beach, SC July 21 thru 28. I would love to crew for someone for a day if the opportunity arose. Also any recommendations for nice, sailboat friendly marinas to checkout for future sails?
Thanks,
sal
Hi, I will be going to Myrtle with my family that same week...but not my Compac Horizon. Be happy to pitch in on a sail or just meet up for a beer one afternoon.

Great Steve!!! I emailed you. Look forward to meeting you.
Hi,
Sorry, I seemed to have missed your email somehow. Email is STPretz@hotmail.com.
Yes, we will be staying a couple of miles down the beach from Myrtle. Just planning to relax and hit the beach. Be nice to get together for a chat.
Steve

We will be staying at Xanadu II on North Myrtle Beach. tjpalek@bellsouth.net. I did a quick search of sailboat rentals. Found one place that has Hobie Cats. Never been on a sailboat in the ocean. You interested in going together for one for a couple hours? http://www.downwindsailsmyrtlebeach.com/hobie-cats-myrtle-beach.asp

Hi,
Sorry for letting the days slip by. Down here with the family and the time is going fast.
Yes, sure, this place is right next to where I am staying. I see the catamarans on the beach and a few going out every time I go swimming. We are going for a swim now. I have Thursday and firday and the rest of today. very flexable...
give me a call if you want to come down to this end of the beach.

That sounds great! Same here.... Time is sweeping by. How about lunchtime on Friday? We can grab a beer in our condo or on the beach at our "camp". Headed to beach now. If your are out walking, I have a teal colored tee shirt and white visor. We are just north of the pink stripped condos (facing the beach). Which end are you on? I helped the Cat owner launch about an hour ago. He is from Indiana was able to park on the beach all week. I won't have my phone at the beach (I am kinda clumsy) but will walk it later.

Thursday the wind was strong and the sea was rough. Friday was a little better, but I must admit. I am rather spoiled now that i have a Horizon Cat. The thought of sitting on a Catamaran trampoline with no bimini in the powerful South Carolina sun and 12-14 knots of wind really didn't work for me.
Thanks for the invite. I was not really consistent with checking the email while on vacation, I did carry my cell, but I guess, life goes on.
On the other hand, my replacement sail cover for my Horizon came in while I was on vacation. I am looking forward to streatching it out to see if it is a good fit, this afternoon.
Take care and keep cool,
Steve
No worries Steve. Friday turned into a circus.....one kid with 2 broken fingers (wind slammed the car door on them) and another family we were with (luckily, NOT the same condo) had to deal with head lice :o
I will catch you next time.
