It may get a little more interesting. I thought that originally they were calling for the low to move northward toward NC, but now...

A well-defined surface low pressure system centered about 180 miles
southeast of the South Carolina-North Carolina border is moving
slowly westward. Satellite images and surface observations indicate
that the low is still embedded within a frontal zone and has not
yet acquired tropical characteristics. However there is still a
possibility that this system could develop into a subtropical or
tropical cyclone later today. Regardless of whether or not this
occurs...strong winds...coastal flooding...high surf...and
dangerous rip currents will continue along portions of the U.S.
East Coast during the next couple of days.

We'll definitely be staying in the creeks this weekend.

I checked the buoy off Edisto Island (on the interwebs, not in person). Wave height 13.45 feet, period 6 seconds. Maco, your ol' V would've handled that just fine.

Yeah, the only time I personally was in anything like that was on a cruise ship near the Bahamas, which made it fun.
