Ran the engine on the Hunter 33 from Campbell's Bachelor Point Marina to La Trappe Creek and back. We were planning to drop anchor and send a few hours, but the windless was not working so we motored on back to Oxford without stopping. Upon further review, it was simply the circut breaker needed to be reset. Wind was from the West, so it only took about an hour to get there and a little more than an hour to get back. Temperature was about 80 degrees fahrenfeit.

Sailing out of Campbell's Bachelor Point Marina on the Tred Avon River on the Island Bee. Went out in the afternoon for several hours. Sailed out onto the Choptank River and then back up into the Tred Avon and the back to the Marina. It was our first time out of the slip this year. Wind was variable to 9 mph with temps in the 80's. Memorial Day weekend.
Shipping Creek Boat Ramp, winds were 10 to 15 mph from the South and the temperature was 73 degrees. The Carp were spawning back up in the creek, it was nice to have some company in the water.
Campbell's Bachelor Point Marina in Oxford, Maryland, launched off of the beach in the marina and then rowed out onto the Tred Avon River and up to Doc's Restaurant , Bar and Grill then back to the Marina. Temperature 72 degrees and the wind 7 to 8 mph from the East.

Chesapeake Bay, launch off of South Beach in Tower Gardens. Water was a little choppy, wind 10 to 15 mph from the NorthEast, temperature 63 degrees. Yesterday caulked the Old Town Heron 9. Caulk said wait 24 hours before applying water, so I have to take Monday off.
Oxford, Maryland on the Eastern Shore, Campbell's Bachelor Point Marina. Spent the whole day cleaning the Island Bee with the First Mate, Ruth Ann Carnes.
Launched off of South Beach in Tower Gardens onto the Chesapeake Bay. Went about 0.25 nautical miles to the north and started taking on water, so I turned around and headed back to the beach. Discovered my kayak has a small leak. Temperature was 85 degrees and wind from the south at 6 mph.
Warehouse Creek Landing, wind from the South at 9 mph. Warehouse Creek pretty much runs east and west so I was able to stay out of the wind. Temperature was in the low 80's. Another beautiful day to kayak.
Shipping Creek Boat Ramp, headed toward Eastern Bay, stopped to talk to 3 guys anchored out in the bay on a 28 foot O'Day sailing vessel, they were from Virginia. Then returned to the boat ramp. Wind from the SouthWest at 7 to 8 mph with a temperature of 74 degrees fahrenheit. Such a beautiful day for a kayak ride.
