Newbie from Philadelphia area!

oh nice! I keep her at Ridley marina which is on the Darby creek about 5 mins "no wake zone" from the Delaware river. Where on the Chesapeake are you? I make runs down to the Chesapeake in every now and then it's about an hour 45 from me. I will certainly pm with any questions thank you!
We keep our boat on Sue Creek right at the mouth of Middle River. We are at the Baltimore Yacht Club.

We've had our 330 for 8 seasons and I've learned a whole lot from the kind folks here!

Glad to hear you remembered the important things (Bar/pool table). He was either at the Bush River Yacht Club or Otter Point Yacht club. They both have a bar and pool table. I am down the river from both after you go under the train bridge. Good area and good boating people.

Joe, he was at the bush river yacht club in Aberdeen. I don't recall exactly where it was but I know they had a bar and pool there.
 
Welcome aboard! Nice to have another Philadelphia boater here. I keep mine at the Philadelphia Marine Center, right next to the Ben Franklin Bridge, and we pass by your area often. Look forward to comparing notes and maybe seeing you on the river some time.

ohh nice! I've been there before to get fuel. I was there during low tide and was amazed how shallow it got in there. We go out to the cove in Nj every now and then to anchor out.
 
Yeah, all the marinas in the area have been silting in over the past few years. They want to dredge but it's expensive, plus a political minefield. Ironic because everywhere else on this part of the river is 50 feet deep.

There are some great spots to anchor up and down the river. Which area do you mean? The island near the mouth of the Schulykill River is a good one, and we've also anchored in that cove by the River Winds just down from the island, but the cove gets really crowded. We often anchor up just past the Rancocas Creek behind a sand bar that comes up at low tide and protects us from wakes, and also a spot just up past the NJ Police station behind Burlington Island.
