What a gorgeous spot! Do you ever have to pinch yourself to see if you're dreaming? Norma

I can really sympathize. It's on a much smaller scale but we have had a similar experience at our vacation home. The house is situated on a two and a half acre lot carved out of a thirteen acre piece. It's on a small bay. For years there were just two cabins on the thirteen acres. The...

Sorry you got caught in the weather, Steve. I didn't realize it was that bad to the south. Glad you found a safe place to stop. Have a safe trip tomorrow. Norma

The gathering was great and the music alone was worth the waves! I posted on the Lankford Bay thread as well. Norma

That was good advice from everyone. Now that we are safely home, I can tell you what we did. First I checked and rechecked the weather report. Top winds were predicted to be 20 knots with 2 to 3 foot waves. Very little chance of storms. On paper, this seemed well within our capabilities and...

Well, the cruise started inauspiciously for us when we arrived at the boat to find it ankle deep in water due to a bilge pump that failed to kick on in the heavy rains of the two nights before. It delayed our start but we did take the Dawn Treader across the bay yesterday afternoon. As you can...

Thanks for the advice, Barry. Of course one of the big selling points of these boats is how well they do in rough weather. The waves here are expected to be 1-3 feet. We've been out in 2 foot waves with no problem. It's just hard for me to envision exactly how rough this would be. One issue...

We have been planning to cruise over to Lankford Bay Marina from Essex, Maryland (the opposite side of the Chesapeake) today to join the C-Brats gathering. It's about 40 miles. Right now there are small craft advisories in effect for the area with winds of up to 20 knots, about a 40% chance of...

Airline Humor made me laugh till I cried! I haven't done that in a long time. Norma

So sorry you had to turn back. We are trying to figure out what to do. For us it would be a realtively short ride across the Bay from Essex, but the reports are calling for small craft advisories tomorrow. We are a bit new to this kind of boating and are unsure how risky that is. The...

We have finally managed to finalize our plans. Dawn Treader will be arriving by water early afternoon on Saturday and leaving Sunday. That's as long as we can get away, but we're looking forward to it. See you all there! Norma Scogin

It looks like we won't be leaving until Saturday morning. Between Friday weather, work and soccer schedule it will just be better if we wait. We'll probably leave Cutter around noon. See you there! Norma

I've definitely seen your boat in the slip. I like your name. It was a beautiful weekend, wasn't it? Are you going to Lankford Bay? If so when are you traveling? Norma

I thought I'd report back on some of the cruising we have done since I first started this topic. Back in April we took a lovely trip to Rock Hall for lunch at Waterman's and a little walk to town and back. We had scattered showers and a bit of chop to deal with on the trip back, but it was a...

So what are you going to name it? Tax Break maybe? Congratulations! Norma Scogin

Those look great, Robbi. How do you attach the snaps? Norma

When we took delivery of our boat weekend before last, Ruthie at Cutter mentioned that they are planning on being there, although they are staying in a hotel, I believe. Norma
