It's a very short sail to our next destination. The plan is to get to Tangier Island as early as possible. I have read reviews about docking there bow in with the cross currents, and that's something we do not want to do with Sabrina.

I think we are going to anchor on the eastern side and dinghy in, hang out and see the island. We will have lunch and do all we want to do. If we decide to stay late, we will stayed anchored and move the 12 to 15 miles on the Onancock in the morning.

If we are ready to move by 3:00PM or 4:00PM we will sail over to Onancock and anchor out there. I talked to 3 or 4 people who said basically the same thing. Get there and see Tangier Island. It is a must see stop, but they were ready to leave before the ferry picked them up at 3:00PM after getting there at 10:00AM. If we want to stay longer, we have the ability to do so.

Update

We left Deltaville this morning around 8:15 after filling up with fuel and pumping out. We put up a reefed Main and head sail with the Mizzen and had a great beam to broad reach sail to Tangiers.



After reading the reports of trying to dock bow in with a serious cross current, we decided to go to the eastern side of the island and anchor for the afternoon and dinghy into Tangiers for lunch and exploring.

After arriving at the Anchorage, we discovered that there were to many crab pots in the area to attempt to anchor. We made a decision to go to Onancock for the night. We hope to get there in time to go ashore and explore with a plan to take a ferry back to Tangiers.
