My 10 day Maine cruise starts this morning as soon as my guests arrive and,
hey look, the visibility is improving!

For those of you landbound and reduced to posting exaggerated accounts of
improbable cruises under false names, I'll post my SPOT tracking page so
that you can vicariously enjoy my travels via Google Earth. With this kind
of visibility, you may see more of Maine than I do

Last I spoke to Skip and Lydia, they were planning to head south again
tomorrow after seeing about as much of Maine as in the picture.

Signing off until my return.

Err heading out on Friday at high tide from my silted in home port of
Mt Vernon, also known as Websters Cove, on the Wicomico R. Heading for
Baltimore, just like the old steam boat days. The wind should be from
the S-SW and the jenniker might see some play. No traking jizmo's.
Single handing a 40' Van de Stadt ketch.

Look for Xan reversing your course in a bit over a week from now. We
should be heading towards Sandy Point near/on the Wicomico for Labor
Day weekend.

Note that it's a naturist rendezvous, so people might not be wearing
much as you approach.

But clothing is optional; nudity isn't required.

The Chesapeake Flotilla of the Nautical Naturists is a particularly
accepting group of naturists.

If you are in the northern Bay that weekend, there's another rendezvous
at Still Pond.

In either case, call out on 77 for the Chesapeake Flotilla and we'll
guide you in.
