Hot out there, even at 8:00am.  Did a morning row rahter than a fast walk today.  I think it is more of a workout!

It has been hot at he end of July and August opens no different.  We cruised to the Chesapeake Yacht Club (CYC) this weekend with our fellow Annapolis Yacht Club cruising group members.  Much of the day was spent by their pool, given the heat.  It was nice to have.

Besides the pool CYC has $5M invested in new floating docks. The food service is good as well.  All in, it is a great destination.

Back from spending most of July on the boat up north.  Nice to be back on the creek for a morning row.

  • A stop everybody makes going into New York harbor

With planning begining back in February, we began our three week cruise to Long Island Sound on Sunday July 3.  We made stops in Cape May, Manasquan NJ, Oyster Bay, Port Jefferson, Sag Harbor, Shelter Island and Greenport (all New York).  The next stops are in Connecticut as we complete a circumnavigation of Long Island Sound and then turn back south to the Chesapeake.

The Mighty Quinn, our Key West 203 DFS was out for a few days getting a ski tow installed. The ski tow was primarily for the use of our grandkids, still to young at three and one to be on a tube behind the boat. However, as indulgent grandparents, we want to be ready!

Took the Key West to a ramp and with the help of a friend (and his trailer) leaded it for a trip to the shop to install a ski tow bar. A nice if short day on the water.
