We all slept in a bit this morning as we had had a long sailing day yesterday up the Delaware Bay. We were anchored in the Sassafras River in a nice sheltered spot about four miles from the entrance. The skipper cooked up some breakfast and we all had bacon, eggs and toast. (Sylvia was a bit skeptical about the pots and pans aboard the Hatter and thought that she may gift a few to replace the worn out items.) It was a nice leisurely morning and we all recharged our batteries for the days sail ahead.
Once again there were storm warnings about severe t-storms in the afternoon so after raising anchor at about noon we motorsailed down the bay towards Rock Hall. We made good time running with the ebbing tide and pulled into Rock Hall Harbor about 5:30. We contacted the Rock Hall Landing Marina and as requested they placed us on a "tee-head" dock. This made getting on and off the boat very convenient. We three headed off to the Waterman's Crab House and had a beverage and some appetizers. We planned to eat dinner later on after showers and a walk into town to get some needed provisions. Along the way we just happened to stop at an ice cream parlor for a sample of their fare. Yummy!
Later after dinner we all had fun watching Capt Bob (Blue Crab Sailing Tours) docking and undocking his 37' Watkins under full main. Yikes!
More to follow later on....
Ciao for now,
Cap'n Dave
