Good afternoon everyone,
I'm fairly new to sailing and have recently purchased a new-to-me 1975 Irwin 30. It's in pretty good shape and while doing the sea trial, it performed great. I want to plan a trip down to Charleston, SC from Washington, NC via the ICW. The boat has a universal atomic 4 gasoline engine rated at 30HP. Can anyone offer an estimate of time it would take to make the this kind of trip (considering currents, etc.)? How about back from Charleston, SC to Washington, NC?
Thanks
