The sea state was okay but the breeze was steadily building so I turned back at marker 5 and beat into a pretty hefty wind.

Beverly Yacht Club, Marion, MA
Sunday we motorsailed through the c&d to overnight anchored behind Reedy Island in the Delaware River.
Monday a sunup we motorsailed east to Cape May, had to go around into the Atlantic due to mast height.
Wednesday motorsailed north to Barnegat Inlet.
Thursday morning the windlass motor packed it in after ten feet of chain and we spent a couple of hours rewiring it. That began our twenty three hour, one hundred forty six mile overnight to Block Island.
Saturday transited Block Island to Cuttyhunk in the Elizabeth Islands of Massachusetts (God's Country)
Sunday we transited from Cuttyhunk Island across Buzzards Bay to Sippican Bay near the Cape Cod Canal. Beautiful territory.
More to come.

Lots of boats out this morning and I got out a half hour late to boot. Saw the ospreys and maybe one gull

You'll be able to get an egg in the Severn later today and instead of pepper you'll have gnats. Still some cownose ray play groups out there.

Nun #6 in the fog
Lots of guestimating making my way around the buoys this morning. I have a compass but never get around to recording the bearings. There were four to six rays off of Bembe Beach at the mouth of Back Creek.

Black vulture at Annapolis maritime museum
Saw maybe a dozen in pairs and singles all over the Severn. Also black vultures at the beach trying to clean up the three or four dead catfish that washed ashore.
