Fleet 10, Day 4

Just before sunrise, St. Michaels, MD

June 21, 2022

From Captain Sean:

Chesapeake Day 4:  We thought we would be the first of Fleet 10 out of the marina, but it still may have been a record that we weren't last. Cameron was joining the crew today in Annapolis and we didn't want to keep him waiting too long. He stayed on Murph's RV in the marina lot so we could meet up at the end of today's leg. 

I woke up around 5am and was able to get a bunch of great sunrise pics and vids. 

It was light air again, but after we rounded the marks at Tilghman Point we were able to go 3-4 knots with full sails. After several tacks we had to return to motoring and motor sailing so our ETA didn't slip to the next day.

Dave and Mike caught up to us at the Bloody Point light.

We dodged all of the races going on coming back to Port A and had a smooth docking. Cam had already done our resupply provisioning to save time.

After swimming at the pool we dinghied over to Eastport proper to meet the LASC gang for dinner at The Boatyard. We hiked around town a bit and got some ice cream. Another good day on the bay.
