Navigated this section of the Ashley River for the first time. Note that approaching the bridge from the Charleston side, there is no information sign visible, only from the Dayton Hall side. According to the sign, this is referred to as the Drayton Draw Bridge. The sign says opening on signal…. Horn blast? Single? Double?

No VHF channel monitored.

The bridge tender must've seen us, because eventually the bridge opened and we could pass underneath.
