Long & Strong

Another EPIC day on the water. Departed Norfolk at 5:50am and ran for 13 hours without touching the throttle. Arrived in Chesapeake City, MD at 7:00pm after 205 miles. We covered the entire Chesapeake Bay; end to end.  The Bay was about as calm as I have ever seen. Fortunately the autopilot did most of the steering today. Had a great surprise and got a call from Pete & Lyn Walton from New Zealand and Bruce & Darlene Rouser from California . They were in Chesapeake City with their boats and we had dinner and drinks together tonight. What a great way to end a long day. Larry and I are flat worn out, but get to do it all over again tomorrow. We hope the Jersey coast is calm as we would love to try and get to NYC tomorrow.
