April 19-20, 2009 - Zender's Dock, SC

We rose early, eager to get to our next stop, at friends Matt and Diane Zender’s dock on the Tom Point River, just ½ hour off the Intracoastal Waterway. We arrived in time to entertain them aboard with hamburgers for dinner and a great opportunity to catch up on all the news.



They have an excellent deep-water dock, which we shared with their boat “Outcast.”













Matt supervised Jerry at his boat chores.



















Jerry devised a pole to mount on the bow, to check bridge heights on the upcoming canals in New York state. It will function as a sort of “curb feeler.”















They have a beautiful timber frame home, with lots of land full of live oaks draped with Spanish moss. We spent two nights here enjoying their hospitality.
