provides another enjoyable
Chesapeake Cruise (180610)
Another fine Chesapeake
Cruise is in the books. Two wooden
classics and one CL16 met up on Sunday
27 May at Somers Cove in Crisfield,
Maryland. Coming all the way from
Hubbard, Nova Scotia with their lovely
CL, were Iain and Lesley Tulloch who
arrived a few days early and were
happily ensconced in a tent at the Janes
Island campground just north of
Crisfield. While awaiting the arrival of
Dick Harrington's Blue Mist, we
launched the other two boats into a
perfect, hot sailing breeze on Somers
Cove. Tony Krauss and Annelies Groen
sailed Uncle Al's SHADES a.k.a.
Glory Days while Al did a couple
of hours' coaching with Iain and Lesley.
The latter subsequently decided to stick
to Janes Island where they could
comfortably cook their own food and not
have to worry about forecast
thunderstorms. Iain and Lesley did come
down Monday morning to see us off from
the Crisfield Marina, promising to
re-join us in Greensboro where Tony,
Annelies and Al - and now Iain and
Lesley, also - were due to race in the Mayor's
Cup. But that is - as Jack Lemmon
used to say - another story. More.
