For those looking for something boating related to do this weekend, the end of the season festival in Chestertown might be a choice. We went last year and had a great time. The ships are very impressive and come from many places. If going by water, the trip takes about an hour from the mouth of the Chester River and the Bay. Dockage is limited or non-existent, so the dink is probably necessary.
