Memorial Day Weekend provided superb weather for sailing over the Southern Chesapeake. Twenty five boats from the Old Point Comfort Yacht Club at Fort Monroe in Hampton, including Sea Scouts, took advantage of that weather to rendezvous at the Cape Charles Town Harbor for a weekend of boating fun.
Cruise Captains JD and Sandie Hay led the group, taking cruising to a whole new level serving morning coffee dockside and evening paella. The first annual Fireball Bay Challenge celebrated Chesapeake Bay water temperatures finally warm enough to allow a very informal mass “man overboard” drill held on the marina docks. Delighted cruisers have already booked the marina for next Memorial Day Weekend.
