Finally finishing our two day offshore adventure. Monday was pretty calm. Today the seas picked up and we had a nice breeze so we were able to sail most of the day. Had a whale sighting yesterday and just after dawn today some dolphins were off the starboard feeding. The water is a beautiful blue color. At noon we were about 24 miles off Atlantic City. Anchoring in harbor of refuge in Lewes, DE. Tomorrow we head up Delaware Bay to the C&D canal.Leggi altro

Viaggiatore How’s everyone feeling? 🤢

Viaggiatore Well, Don did get sick yesterday after trying to take a nap below - but it was just once so he is grateful. Having the 4th crew member onboard meant I didn't have a night watch so that was nice. Yesterday nothing came out of the galley that wasn't pre packaged until a late dinner after anchoring but no complaints so that was good. We are happy we made it - Dan (Richard's friend) made a comment that his 25' would not have been fun at all yesterday but Moonlight Lady rode it out reasonably well. Swells got to 4' + but it wasn't too bad.
08/06/22Risposta
Viaggiatore Sorry about Don. Glad everything else is going well.

Calm day after our exciting trip offshore yesterday. Left the anchorage 8:30 and headed up Delaware Bay. Light to no wind, so under power the whole day. Saw some planes going in and out of Dover AFB. Anchoring off Reedy Island to get a good start on the C&D canal tomorrow. 55 miles 10 hoursLeggi altro

Reedy Island to Worton Creek, MD
9 giugno 2022, Stati Uniti ⋅ ⛅ 77 °F
Trip through the C&D canal went smoothly. We sadly said goodby to our extra crew mate, Dan, at Schaefer's Canal House and continued on our way. Coming out into the Elk River enjoyed a boisterous sail down the bay under just the genoa. Coming into Worton Creek there was vibration using the engine. Took a mooring in Worton Creek as all anchoring area is gone. Richard went into the water and found a bikini top wrapped around the prop - but no mermaid! 10 hours 48 milesLeggi altro

Viaggiatore Did he find the mermaid!
09/06/22Risposta
Viaggiatore No, he didn't and he is upset! Thought he should for all his effort.
09/06/22Risposta
Viaggiatore I guess as soon as I got off the boat things started to get interesting! Seriously though - great trip, sorry I had to jump off to go take care of my own boat - stout boat, steady crew and super fun to get out and see some bluewater!!!

Yesterday we had a calm run down to the Choptank River, Tred Avon, Trippe Creek. Very nice anchorage we have visited multiple times. Sat tight today as rain was in the forecast - some in the morning and then light breeze for the afternoon. A relaxing day at anchor.Leggi altro

So did you take her out for a spin? Or just do a drive by saying na-na-na-na-naaaa! [Karen Dudziak]

Viaggiatore Just a drive by. No water pump for the engine and main sail in for adjustment. Sigh...

Rain storms predicted so we stayed put yesterday. Good call - had a gully washer. About an inch of rain in 30 minutes. We are the blue dot!

Viaggiatore Yikes! Good call. Would be difficult to see anything if underway with that much rain. Stay safe and enjoy!

What interesting weather we have been having! After staying put at anchor we had a pleasant sail over to Oxford on Friday. Reconnected with our Dickerson friends and planned a regatta on Saturday with them. Well, yesterday there was so much wind the race was cancelled, no one really wanted to go out in winds gusting to 30. Spent the afternoon walking and shopping in Oxford. Several of us ended up in a vintage clothing store - and those of you who know me know what happened! 3 of us bought vintage dresses (and some jewelry) and another lady went over later and got a dress too! We wore our new dresses to the dinner last night and had a great time.Leggi altro
