Not many passengers on MIss Anne today due to weather. But the skies were quite dramatic.

Well, it was a long unfulfilled wait. I worked as crew on a private charter during the Blue Angels scheduled show on May 21. As many know, the Blue Angels never flew, due to weather. But lots of boats were out there, waiting and waiting.
Wow, what a day as captain! I've never seen Ego Alley so crowded, and it was challenging to be at the helm for multiple tours in busy waters. But as the sun began to set, the town got a bit quieter and the views were spectacular.
My friend Elaine and I enjoyed a tour of Baltimore's inner harbor, and out towards Fort McHenry, on Watermark's Annapolitan II.
Each year, my friend from Long Island Sound spends a week with me on Belle Bateau, and then I visit her to sail in Long Island Sound. She is smitten with the variety our Chesapeake Bay offers. This year, we anchored near the horse farm in the Magothy, moored in Swan Creek to visit Rock Hall, and anchored in Mill Creek near Cantlers (and yes, we had steamed crabs).
I worked two days in a row as Captain of Miss Anne at Annapolis City Dock.
We love to visit St. Michaels by boat. We anchored close to town this time, since it was early in the season and not many boats were anchored out. We had a great view of the CBMM. And we were able to meet up with friends Suzanne and Joe, returning from the Bahamas. They were anchored in San Domingo Creek on the backside of St. Michaels.
Yay! I got to be captain of the adorable Miss Anne during the spring sailboat show. We had a different slip, due to the boat show.
Before my first 2025 shift as captain of Miss Anne, I asked to ride along with Capt Phyllis to learn the timing of the narration. Beautiful spring weather!
My husband and I played tourists today on two Watermark vessels. We took a tour on the Harbor Queen, and then rode the Miss Anne with Capt Noel at the helm.
