SLOW RIDE: The Life & Times Along the SC Intracoastal Waterway
From just north of Myrtle Beach to south of Hilton Head, South Carolina’s coastal inland waterway is 235 miles of natural creeks, sounds, rivers and man-made channels that move commerce up and down the coast economically and safely. But, the intercoastal waterway is more than a water route. This documentary takes a look at the ecologic, economic and historic aspects of this state treasure through fascinating interviews interwoven with breathtaking footage.
Completed in Spring 2009, waiting for a scheduled airdate from SC-ETV. Shot in High Definition with original music by Hootie and the Blowfish’s Mark Bryan.
