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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
Oxford, MD
This morning we woke up to clear skies and very strong winds out of the north. This is part of TS Ana coming through our area. It is nice to be safe and secure in a nice harbor. This afternoon, John Shanahan, the owner of the Oxford Yacht Agency stopped by and said he wanted to show us a 46’ Grand Banks Classic that he thought we might enjoy. Now I have no idea what prompted this but being that I like to look at boats I said fine and we saw the boat, but it was not for us. I guess if you are the only boat on the dock that is not a Grand Banks, then the owner is going to try and sell you one. BTW, I do not plan on buying any other boat at this time…but it is fun to look.
The weather for Wednesday was not good so we stayed here for another day. Oxford is a pretty town, but there is not a lot to do in this little town.
Cheers,
Holly, Ed & Emily aboard M/V Serenity
Fair winds and calm seas for all!
