Looks like maybe he's heading for Ocean City inlet?

How about Tom's Cove? I don't have a detailed chart, is it deep enough
there?

Belay that, just downloaded the chart, no where near enough water in
there!

Ocean City doesn't look to good either!

Where the hell is he going?

Seems odd that's he's backtracking like that. Why backtrack? If he wanted to
get to shore when he first changed course, Chesapeake Bay would have been
the logical choice.

Skip often makes unusual meandering course changes that make little
sense to onlookers. It's even possible that he is just killing time
until morning, because it would have been dark by the time he reached
the Chesapeake Bay and he doesn't want to attempt it at night.

Now that I look at what happened, and where he is now, I have
concluded that the backtracking represents Lydia's watch!
