...was delightful. Launched on the Patuxent River near the Benedict
bridge, Went for a nice swim and picnic lunch north side of the big Pax
River bridge, cruised around the other side to a pretty little area in
"Hollywood," and headed back. Even the jetskiers were doing well. Saw a
lovely ketch playing around in the deep waters of the Pax River. No
jellyfish! Water temp was 87F!


lucky devil!

high tide was before and after dark over the weekend at long beach
island...channel's only 20' wide in some spots so dont want to risk it



Tide isn't much of an issue on the middle and upper part of Chesapeake
Bay or on the Patuxent River. We have tides, but they're nothing like
Atlantic Ocean tides
