Thanks for a great festival!
Sail With the Filmmakers
A special thanks to the Coastal Georgia Film Society, Janet Brinko of the St. Marys CVB, and Barbara Ryan of St. Marys Magazine for offering such a warm welcome. Thanks also to the downtown merchants of St. Marys, GA and the mayor for greeting our Oscar short-listed director, Andy Abrahams Wilson and offering such a nice reception and tour of the area.
We truly appreciate the reception offered by the Riverview Hoteland the Goodbread House Inn, and the spread they put before us.
Filmmakers truly enjoyed the rustic beauty of the landscape and back waterways the Cumberland Sound Ferry gave them access to, as well as the lively narration by our owner, Captain Kevin McCarthy. All were intrigued by the charm, rich history and overwhelming hospitality of the area.
We hope to see filmmakers back in our area to make movies in the near future!
Special thanks to all the folks who joined us for a spectacular day of sailing on Valentine's Day!
Our passengers really enjoyed the lively narration of Capt. Pajama Dave dressed up as Cupid.
We hope to see you again - perhaps on St. Patty's Day as Capt. Dave returns as a leprechaun!
