Serenity heading south...and returning home!

We got an early start this morning (7:00 am) and started our trip from Cape May up the dreaded New Jersey Coast. When we got out into the ocean, the seas were relatively calm, but the wind was blowing a little more than I had hoped it would be at this time of the day. We started making our way north [...]

Utschs Marina, Cape May, NY, 55 Miles

We got an early start at 5:20 am today. As I started to pull out of the marina, I saw 5' depth on the depth indicator and Len was following me and he draws 5 ½ feet. I think Len pushed a little mud coming out but he made it and that is all that counts. Our trip along the rest of the C&D Canal was beautiful [...]

C&D Canal, Summit North Marina, Bear, DE, 48 Miles

Holly and I have decided that Annapolis is just about the nicest city we have visited on out trip. This morning we said a sad good bye to Annapolis and started our trip north for the final push towards home. The wind started to pick up and the seas were building as we made our way up the final part of [...]

Thursday, May 21, Annapolis, MD

I am so happy we decided to lay over another day in Annapolis before we start up the rest of the Chesapeake Bay! The weather today has been cold, windy and rainy all day. I walked Emily this morning before it started to rain and then I waited until midday for a slight break in the weather for her second [...]

Skull Creek Marina

Rain, fog and mild

We left the dock at 0800 hours sharp and headed for the Fields Cut which is just north of the crossing of the Savanna River. The Savanna River is a very busy shipping port and several large ships cruise up and down this river at high tide. We would be crossing the river at just about high tide, so it was very important to be very vigilant in our travels and not interfere with any of the commercial traffic on this river. We crossed the Savanna River at high tide and entered Fields Cut at exactly 9:00 am…perfect timing…we did not see any commercial ship and we cruised through the cut without any problems at all. We arrived at Skull Creek about mid-day and relaxed for the rest of the day. This is great, all three boats Destiny, Heron and Serenity are cruising together again, heading north to Connecticut. We had cocktails aboard Serenity before heading out to Boathouse for dinner.

Cheers,
Holly, Ed & Emily aboard M/V Serenity
Fair winds and calm seas for all!
