I could get used to this.

Calm morning in Edgewater.
A great way to wake up!

We have settled into a rhythm here of getting projects accomplished, making list of new projects and what supplies we need. We do find time to get the boat out on the bay to sail. I do hear that the boating season is starting to open up in Chicago and I have booked my flight to head back. In the meantime, I still get to enjoy this for the rest of the week!

Our Ocean Cruising Club port officer, Westbrook Murphy was invaluable.

While we have been in Maryland, we used the Ocean Cruising Clubs Port Officer Westbrook Murphy for an address to deliver packages and general help in locating groceries and supplies. He has been invaluable. We aren’t the only cruisers Westbrook is looking after, boats from around the east coast and Caribbean have stopped in to get some help and share a story or two. The cruising community really is a tight knit community of interesting people.

In Maryland you are allowed 2 personal crab pots without a license. Westbrook showed us how it’s done.
Tamara came out sailing with us for the day. She might crew on Yantina in the future.
Ian finds yet another mast to go up.
