Weather: We sail rain or shine! Sails are cancelled only if there is severe weather or extreme heat as determined by the skipper in conjunction with the Bay Sail Coordinator.
What to Bring: Bring your lunch and something to share, swimsuit and towel, sunglasses, hat and sun block and you’re ready for a great day. Refreshments will be provided. More information will be emailed to you the week of the sail.
Overview: No experience is necessary! Captain David will gladly share his extensive knowledge. We will sail approximately 7 miles to Bloody Point at the southern tip of Kent Island. You can take the helm and help trim the sails, or just sunbathe on the bow if that’s your preference. Enjoy taking pictures or peering through the binoculars to see the beautiful osprey diving with their sharp talons to grab a fish to take back to the nest to quiet the peeping chicks. And as you sail out of the marina onto the Chesapeake Bay. If conditions permit, we can drop anchor and take a swim. After a great day of sailing, the fun continues with dinner at a local restaurant (separate cost).
