Exploring a WW2 Aircraft Carrier | USS Yorktown in Charleston, South Carolina

On our last episode, we left Brunswick, Georgia, with no real plan for where we’d stop. This time, we kept heading north toward Charleston—and boat life had a few surprises waiting for us. A loose water maker hose emptied our tanks into the bilge, leaving us with a lot of water to make and a long overnight passage ahead. Steve was seasick, so I took the helm, made jambalaya underway, and we each took a watch through the night. By morning, we were tired, relieved, and almost to Charleston. We anchored near the USS Yorktown, but soon discovered why the anchorage was so quiet: once the boat traffic picked up, the waves came from every direction. A rough night, a badly stubbed toe, and a $65 dinghy dock didn’t stop the boys from heading over to explore this incredible World War II aircraft carrier. Come aboard with us for real-life sailing, an overnight passage, and a tour of the USS Yorktown! Thanks for watching!
