So, in Charleston, in the winter, you will be running your heat. You also won't see a lot of locals boating in the winter. You'll see a few transients passing through.



Charleston is a great city to live and play in. A lot going on there and great people. Some of the best restaurants anywhere. Lot's of history and attractions. We love our stops there.


Thanks for the tips about the weather. Your right, that being northeast boaters, high temps are not necessary. Our last long term cruise took us up to down east Maine to Nova Scotia from June to August. Nights were cool, around the mid 50s to 60s, but we liked it.

We will have to consider using December and January as a combination travel south option.

Thanks! Dave
