SUMMER ISN’T OVER

August 31, 2018 By John Winter

As you can see, we  are living the good life in St James.  Summer doesn’t end on Labor Day and prime fishing continues for many months to come.  Of course, so does going to the beach, golf, tennis and pickle ball, etc.

I hope that you remain interested in St James Plantation Real Estate.  Please let me know if I can be helpful with any additional information about our community.

I’M A FISHERMAN

August 3, 2018 By John Winter

It is no secret that I am addicted to the fishing here offshore of St James..  I keep this nice fishing boat in a dry slip at the St James Marina and go “fishing” whenever the weather and my real estate schedule will allow.  Many St James residents are caught up in the golfing or maybe tennis, but for me it is a fishing pole out there in the ocean.  I can claim over 500 fishing ventures offshore and have boated over two thousand fish.  This includes a majority of king mackerel plus mahi  mahi, sea bass, tuna, wahoo, sea trout, cobia and even a couple  of sail fish.  If this is retired life in St James, then bring it on.  As an added incentive, I do offer two free fishing trips to my buyers.

One of the many clubs here in St James is a fishing club.  We have two hundred members and one of our goals is to include members that do not have boats on our fishing trips.  So if you are a fisherman or think you might like to try it, come on down.

ST JAMES MARINA

February 27, 2018 By John Winter

St. James Marina, Southport NCSt James Plantation includes a beautiful marina on the Inter Coastal Waterway.  We have 155 wet slips from 30 t0 50 feet in length.  For the smaller boats we have 300 inside dry slips.  With just a phone call you can have your boat picked up in the dry storage and launched and ready.   When you are finished, they will pick up your boat, flush the engines, pressure the outside of your boat and put it back in  the boat storage building.

This marina is the most secure of all the local marinas in case of nasty weather.  We have the lowest fuel prices and the best marina staff of all the local marinas,  There is a very nice restaurant on site, open from 7am till 10 pm.

If you like to just cruise, Myrtle Beach is  just a little south and Wrightsville Beach, Wilmington and Baldhead Island are just a little ride north.   There are several places to eat with boat docks in both directions, also.  If you are a fisherman, the inshore fishing for sea trout, red fish and flounder is excellent and all along the waterway and branch streams.  If you prefer off shore fishing, there are exits into the ocean close by.  We managed to catch one sailfish and eleven king fish just this past week.

Having your own boat very close to your home is an ideal set up.   Come take a look and maybe even a scenic boat ride with me.

Check Out St.James In North Carolina

December 6, 2017 By John Winter

In St James, you can buy a house like this one above on the golf course for around $500,000 or like the one below on a nice lake for around $400,000.   Taxes between $2,000 and $2,500 per year.  Sell your house up north for $800,000 and put the balance in your savings to help you enjoy life in St James.  You can mimic the actions of Mary and I  and buy a house on the marina and go fishing. The weather down here is amazing.  We do not get hardly a trace of snow,  sell all of your snow shovels and big coats behind and stock up on beach chairs, towels, and a good umbrella!  There are many year-round activities in the area. Recently a flotilla just happened less than 30 minutes away. Christmas parades are almost weekly because each town has their own. Little markets pop up here and there and the locals sell their goods. Buying a home in St.James is one of the best investments, we have ever made!

SHRIMP BOATS ARE HERE

October 18, 2017 By John Winter

If you like shrimp, it is easy to get fresh shrimp right off the boat.   There are numerous shrimp boats based very close by and they pass St James both coming and going.  Shrimp and grits is a favorite local dish and a favorite of mine.  $5.50 a pound for the large size, at the local fish market, or right off the boat.

KING MACKEREL TOURNAMENT

September 29, 2017 By John Winter

Getting ready for this years US OPEN king mackerel Tournament.   Last year we weighed in a 51 Inch fish which was plenty long, but had been on a diet and was way too skinney.   Hope to do better this year.   The two in these photos are close, but not quite heavy enough.
