After final hugs, Betty and John
helped with lines as we departed around 8:30.
The skies area clear, but the winds will be out of the north for most of
the day. Those lovely, 18-ish mph winds slowed our progress substantially with
the help of an ebb current. We were
doing 4-5.3 mph for most of the day.
The winds died down around 2:30, but the current remained against us
until be approached Poplar Island. Thankfully, we had a strong current up
Prospect Bay and into the Kent Narrows. We just made the 4:30 opening of the bridge.
We continued to our new “home” in Mears Point Marina. Since the docks have half-finger piers, this
is the first time we backed into our new slip. Since it was Memorial Day, some of our new neighbors were around and welcomed us to the marina. Once lines were properly secured for the
season, we ate a light dinner and chilled.
Our 2018-2019 Cruise is complete. It is good to be home!
