Left Charleston Tuesday 11 am

Ken texted that they are leaving Charleston with the radar up and running.  Expecting to do hull speed on the way south.  Direct quote "Florida or bust."

About fourty minutes later he texted that they were passing historic Fort Sumter and the flag there was at half mast.

In a quick telephone call Ken said they were expecting stiff winds and would come back "inland" if they became too strong  I wondered what "too strong" was for "waves crashing over the bow Burke" but did not ask.  Some things are better left alone!
