GA to CT Day 14
North Beach, MD to Chesapeake City, MD
We left Herrington Harbour Marina 1t 0600... off to a bumpy start with 3 foot seas on our bow once we left the marina jetty... we proceeded to the east side of the bay to get in the lee of the land and in about an hour we were in comfortable 1 to 2 foot seas.
We had current against us until we reached the C & D Canal and we started getting a boost in speed... when we were approaching Chesapeake City we getting pushed to 9.5 knots... always seems to happen just before stopping we get a huge boost from the current.
We arrived and docked at the Chesapeake City Docks at 1515... our location tonight is
39°31.633'N, 075°48.663'W. Traveled today for 9 hours and 15 minutes covering 62.5 nautical miles averaging 6.8 knots.
Our friends Jim and Cathy Fisher came from the Baltimore area to visit and we enjoyed catching up and enjoyed a great Bucksport sausage and pepper dinner aboard SAILS
