The trip is funded.
The yacht has been contracted.
The beer has been selected.
Crew: All sailors from last year have returned for this year's cruise.
Course: This year, we cruise from Annapolis, past Thomas Shoal, around Drum Point to Solomons. Zahniser's Marina is our final destination on Friday, May 13.
On Saturday, Sweetwater will venture to Cambridge to engage in "Second Saturday".
From Cambridge, the next destination will be St. Michael's Marina.
Monday will find the crew navigating back to Annapolis.
The Yacht: This one is the grandest yet. Sweetwater is a 50 foot Jeanneau. We're hoping the west wind will show us a quick trip to Solomons. With a wet length of 48 ft, we should be able to achieve a hull speed of 9 knots with a 10-15 knot wind on the beam reach.
I am hopeful that we can sleep 8 with more comfort than on past yachts.
The Beer:
Smithwicks, Yeungling Lager, Sam Adams, Corona, New Castle Brown Ale.
Bottles only, no lite beer!
Best Regards, Captain Stuckbottom
