Hello Delaware Bay
While at Bohemia River for a few days, I had the boat pulled out of the water to replace the zincs and found a surprise - a crab trap line wrapped around the propeller shaft! I sure wasn’t counting on that!
Mark and Connor joined on Wednesday for the trip north to New York and Albany.
Today was a long 82 mile run from Bohemia Bay to Cape May, New Jersey. Tomorrow we head north toward NY. It is still to be decided whether or not we go the intracoastal waterway (inside) or up the coast (offshore). It all depends on the weather.
Surprise - a hairy prop!

My brother, Bill, asked someone to take our picture and told them it was our first date (it wasn’t)
