Another 3 months gone...who knows where!
We are busy preparing for our return to the east coast next week. Due to the exceptionally ugly winter, the marina was unable to get Eos out of the storage shed in time for the Bay Bridge Boat Show. We have a launch date of April 18, so will leave for Baltimore on April 16 after one more visit to see the grandchildren. Joan has again agreed to look after the house...Thanks!
Once back aboard and settled, we have a general plan that includes:
- Driving to Washington to see the cherry blossoms
- Moving Eos to Annapolis for 4 days (4/24 to 4/28) to once again enjoy this great little town and also to show the boat to any interested potential buyers.
- After Annapolis we will return to Bodkin Creek, complete our provisioning, and prepare for some mid-Atlantic cruising.
- Sometime in May we hope to cruise up the Potomac to Washington and spend a week or two being tourists in the Capitol.
- Other cruise destinations being considered include Jamestown, Williamsburg, Crisfield, Smith Island, and various places on the Eastern Shore.
We have decided to remain in the Chesapeake area in order to keep the boat available for showing to potential buyers. If no viable offers appear by the end of June, we will probably find a secure marina for Eos and return to Santa Barbara for the summer.
Hopefully, at some point over the next two months, we can find a knowledgeable interested buyer who will appreciate and care for Eos in the coming years.
