Second try


After a brief rest we listened to the weather reports and reviewed the current weather at Thomas Point light (about half way up the Bay) and saw the wind was now 8 knots from the west. we upped anchor at 11:30am and set sail for Baltimore...a second time. As we entered the Bay it was sunny, cool, with a light breeze of 8 knots from the west, just as it was at Thomas Point. . It was hard to believe that only 5 hours earlier we were battling high winds and waves. So up the Bay we went

It's been a beautiful motor sail. At 5:30 pm we are passing Annapolis and approaching the Bay bridge, which means we are about 4 hours from home!

Annapolis I off to the west

Bay bridge ahead

Into the Patapsco at 8pm. The Francis ascot a key bridge ahead
FSK Bridge at sundown

We pulled into the slip at Harnorview at 9:50 pm.
Priority in its slip again

The entire trip of 962 miles was accomplished in 7 days and 16 hours. Amazing!!

The entire trip was amazing. Can't wait for the next one
