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, water, sunglasses, hat and sun block and you’re ready for a great day. More information will be emailed to you the week of the sail.
Overview: No experience is necessary! Captain Larry will gladly share his extensive knowledge. 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 Patapsco River onto the Chesapeake Bay, you can see the Francis Scott Key Bridge and the buoy marking the location of where Key penned the Star Spangled Banner. After a great day of sailing, the fun continues with dinner at a local restaurant (separate cost).
