weather


The sail flow forecast in the previous post is probably towards the high end, but none the less it will be an interesting weekend of weather. "Disturbed weather" is what I heard over the radio this morning leaving out of Plaindealing Creek.

It's been a great trip. Not much wind the first couple of days, then five out of the next six days had small craft warnings. The one day without warnings, yesterday, had gusts to 35 mph out on the Choptank.

Highlights so far include some great sailing, soft shell crab sandwich at Tangier Island, an afternoon swim in Cod Harbor and an oyster farmer who gave me a bunch of oysters and wouldn't take any money. People are nice.
