Charleston Harbor Photo Cruise National Stereoscopic Association Convention Charleston in 2003 Sunday July 27, 2003

Nautical Queen

The Sunday evening cruise will be on the two-deck, dual-paddle wheel "Nautical Queen" with snacks and a cash bar available.  We will begin loading at 6:30 PM and depart from the Maritime Center at 7:00 PM.  Since the sun will set around 8:30, we will have about two hours of sunlight to get photos/views of the Cooper River Bridge and its replacement, Fort Sumter and Fort Moultrie, the Battery, Patriots Point, Shem Creek and the other historical and naval sites in Charleston Harbor.  The cruise will be just for us - the owner is a photographer and understands our interests.  With a little good luck and good weather, we may get an additional bit of time after sunset with the harbor lights.  The boat is approved for 180 passengers, but we will limit the tickets to the first 100 to make sure that everyone can get good views.
