Additional Details:
Two German frigates and a tug are tied alongside modern dock facilities at the excellent deep water port of Port Royal, SC. The Beaufort County harbor was praised in 1562 when Ribout wrote that it is one of the greatest and fairest havens in the world. Port Royal is the deepest harbor south of Chesapeake Bay with an average depth of 5 fathoms for nearly 27 miles
