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.

Me at the helm, with Capt Phyllis waving during our dry run
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.

Finally, the weather and our schedules aligned to enjoy our first overnight anchorage. We were the only boat at anchor in the Rhode River. Wow, that's a first.

Although I'm already a Watermark captain, I wanted to try driving the water taxis during Prospective Captains Day. It was fun!

USCG boarding Belle Bateau during maiden voyage of 2025
We splashed Belle Bateau at Port Annapolis Marina, and within 20 minutes were boarded by the USCG for a surprised safety inspection. We passed! Glad we remembered to bring a few items that we had removed from the boat for the winter. Belle Bateau arrived her slip at SBYC about 80 minutes later.

Captain Ms. Claus
I was Captain Ms. Claus today on the Jolly Express, my warmest shift yet. It was lovely to not have to wear 6-7 layers of clothing. And I didn't need to use my hand warmers. We had some rain at the end of the shift, but we dodged most of the nasty weather.
