Haven Harbour to Herrington Harbour

We cast off at 1000 on a bright sunny day.  Winds were from the south at 10 knots when we reached the deeper water off Rock Hall.  Dozens of sailboats were already enjoying a wonderful day in ideal sailing conditions.  Winds built to 15 knots by noon.  We estimate there were close to 100 fishing boats anchored or trolling just north of the Bay Bridge and near Sandy Point Light.  There was a lot of boat traffic passing under the Bay Bridge.  It was bitter sweet to think we were going under it for what most likely will be the last time.  Hundreds of sailboats were sighted off Annapolis, "The Sailing Capital of America".  We altered course some to pass close to the Thomas Point Light which is the only Chesapeake Screw Pile lighthouse left on the Bay in it original location.  Finally, we arrived at Herrington Harbour with its huge American flag flying on a tall flagpole at the breakwater entrance.  We took our place at the very end of K Dock which was exactly the perfect place to be showing a boat for sale.  It was a fun day on the water and good to know Foreign Affair was in great shape, ready for more adventures.
