Took the 'Fish to the end of Back Creek then to Chesapeake Harbor for a morning coffee run. On the way out of CH I saw a bald eagle fly off from his perch on the channel marker. Flood watch in effect for Annapolis later today.

Latest item in the center console's shakedown process was to test the electric windlass. Worked like a champ at the dock. Since the engines were running anyway I decided to cast off and idle my way to the end of Back Creek. Serene little jaunt as the temps had cooled and the rain softly fell around me.
Pushed off at 4:42am to see the sky bloom after the previous evening's storms. Got some good cotton candy tones while sitting in gentle swells.
Launched at 4:50am for what turned out to be a just OK sunrise. I headed for City Dock to see the yoga gang assembling at the park and got some photos of the sun rising behind the Bay Bridge. But the shot of the day was of F/V Miss Grace out of Back Creek headed for a day of fishing. @missgracecharters
Took the center console to Meredith Creek and Whitehall Ck with Capt Dean. Saw some sunken vessels and then went for a spin around Ego Alley before returning to Eastport
Met the sunrise at the mouth of Back Creek and was home by 5:50am. Took the family to the new Buddy's on the Bay @ Lowe's Wharf for lunch. Smooth conditions in both directions. Kyle took the helm for the first time on the way there and did a great job. I made the return trip at close to 40 mph on really smooth seas.
Finished putting the house back together after our July 4 backyard party. As a reward I took my daugher for her first ride on the Sailfish 2660 cc. We went out to Cantler's and back.
