It could be a 3-hour tour! We will go as long as we want.   Back to the boats\, it will be afternoon nap time.  Dinner is your own but I recommend Blue Heron Oyster House. It’s a 10 min walk from Swan Creek Marina.  It will be crowded\, and I think its first come first serve but they have outdoor seating. \nMonday we will wake up and around 9 am head back to our home base. \n\nRegistrations are closed for this event \n \nNot yet a member?

On Saturday evening June 7th\, the Annapolis Summer Garden Theater will be showing the comedy “Disaster” (hopefully not an omen for the cruise). Those interested can join us at the show on Saturday evening at 8:30 pm (tickets are $30 pp). On Sunday morning we will have a private tour of the Thomas Point Lighthouse. The tour will depart from the Annapolis Maritime Museum in Eastport (on Back Creek). We will travel in their boat\, not our own\, to the lighthouse. Boat travel time is 30 min each way and the lighthouse tour will be about 90 minutes for a total dock to dock time of 2 1/2 hrs. The tour will cost $90 per person. \nApril UPDATE:  The cruise currently has 14 registered and the maximum is 16!  If the tour is cancelled due to the weather\, everyone gets a full refund. If there is enough demand\, we can schedule a second tour of the lighthouse on Sunday afternoon. There are currently slips available at Annapolis City Marina\, just on the Eastport side of the drawbridge to Annapolis\, but cruisers can stay at a mooring ball or the marina of their choice. If you call the marina\, mention NC3 so they keep folks near one another.\nSailing plan is to arrive in Annapolis on Saturday afternoon with a potential overnight stop in the Magothy River on Friday night to break up the trip to Annapolis. For members returning home Sunday\, the lighthouse tour will end before lunch allowing time to sail home in the afternoon. Those staying over Sunday night will depart back for home on Monday morning. I plan to stay in Annapolis City Marina\, just on the Eastport side of the drawbridge to Annapolis\, but cruisers can stay at a mooring ball or the marina of their choice.

See many great boats and some really spectacular boat projects\, complete and in progress. \nThe Boaters Boat Show is not your typical showroom floor packed with gleaming\, untouched vessels waiting for a buyer—it’s something far more authentic\, more soulful. This is a show dedicated to the heart and soul of cruising classics—boats with stories\, with character\, with salt in their wood and wisdom in their wakes. These are boats that have been lived in\, loved\, and customized by their owners over years of adventure.\n\nHere\, it’s not about price tags or spec sheets. It’s about conversation. It’s about pulling up alongside a seasoned captain and asking\, “What made you fall in love with this boat?” It’s about hearing what they’ve added\, modified\, reinforced\, or simply endured—because that’s what cruising is really about. You’ll find everything from clever DIY upgrades to finely tuned systems that reflect thousands of miles of experience.\n\nThis show celebrates the bond between boater and boat. The quirks\, the triumphs\, the annoyances\, the “I wish I knew that before” moments. Whether it’s a classic trawler\, a salty ketch\, or a battle-hardened liveaboard\, every boat here is a piece of living maritime history—and every owner is a chapter in that story.\n\nCome for the boats. Stay for the stories. This is the Boaters Boat Show: where passion floats.\n\nSeptember 5th thru the 7th\n\nRegistrations are closed for this event \n \nNot yet a member?

It is for this reason that I have prepared two options to mitigate any adverse winds/weather. Because some like marinas\, and other prefer anchorages\, this week mostly has options at either.  \n  \nTrue South with cooperative winds  \n  \nDay 1 Sat. July 11\, sail across the bay to Tolchester marina for lunch and music at Shanty Bar. Arrive before 1130 to ensure one of their free large floating docks. Southland is a modern country band. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/L24OVmYVbIA     \nLeave for slip North Point Marina in Rockhall\, dinner aboard\, cocktails in Pavilion  \n  \nDay 2 Sun July 12.  Depart Rock hall for West River. 24 nm. take a slip at CYC or anchor out. dinner aboard. \n  \nDay 3 Mon July 13 While in West River\, 11:30 brunch at Stan and Joe’s\, a casual\, dog friendly eatery having fresh crabs. They have 10+ large deep slips and easily accessible.   Depart West river 1 pm for a long cruise (40 km) down to Solomons. Sunset is 2033 hours So expect to arrive before dark. Settle in one of Mill Creek’s many anchorages for a quiet eve. Bring fans!  \n  \nDay 4 July 14\, swing over to Spring Cove Marina or anchor in Back Creek hopeful for an early arrival to be able to enjoy a walk or bike into town. Town dinghy dock available also. Pot Luck Dinner in the Spring Cove Pavillion- make your fav dish.  \n  \nDay 5 July 15. Decision to stay an extra day will be made by members as Solomons has lots to offer.  Or take a short trip up the Patuxent and St Leonard’s creek for meal at Vera’s Marina Restaurant.  \nDay 6. July 16. Early departure for Oxford. Stay at Safe Harbor or anchor in Tred Avon River.  \n  \nDay 7. July 17. Leave for home port  \n  \nAlternative Sail Plan.
