Went out on Wilma Lee with my parents, Christina, and her cousin Barbara. Hopefully the pictures speak for themselves.

Maritime Museum Pier
Black Crowned Night Herons on Bow Pulpit
Second Sunrise?
Wind up a bit, making a nice long swell as the tide was flooding back up creeks. I saw two night herons on the pulpit of the big sailboat tied up outside Horn Point Marina. Also a couple of ospreys fishing.

Flat and smooth out there, just me and Sophie and the chicken neckers. A few rafts of forage fish, a couple of osprey, and plenty of sea nettles.

Overcast and warm with a breeze 3-5 kts from nw. The SULTANA is at anchor off the harbor. Other than that one stinkpot, a cormorant and a couple of osprey. Everyone else slept in.

I missed official dawn but got to watch the sunrise over the eastern cloud bank.
Not much going on, two naval academy launches and a handful of cormorants, osprey, and heron flying over a few boils of forage fish.

Nothing too exciting this morning. Good average speed due to rowing in time to whatever torture the mids were suffering through.

Too tired to fight the waves in the Severn this morning so I checked out the new dock by the new pavilion aft Annapolis maritime museum's east campus. No cleats but otherwise splendid.

Very still and warm. Many full size sea nettles and many balls of forage fish. I might have seen a lone porpoise break the surface a few hundred yards away.
There's a 57' wooden Hereshoff ketch at Horn Point CATRIONA out of Mattapoiset, MA.

Christina and I went out on ELF with Steve and Kate around noon today. There was a tall ship anchored in the roads that we were able to sail towards. We lost the wind before we're got close enough to see the name but I looked her up on marinetraffic.com when I got home. Libertad is Argentina's tall ship.

Yes, again.
Pretty smooth out there and barely a breath of wind. Saw a cormorant and some fish broke the surface near me. I got a late start so there were a few fisherman out and a couple of paddleboarders and trotliners. I originally typed frotliners but that is a completely different thing.
