We spent a fantastic weekend on a MM Get-Away to St. Michaels. A total of 19 boats invaded the St Michaels Harbor Inn marina for a 3 day weekend. The cruise over was a little choppy but not that bad, with the only daunting situation was when I drifted off course a bit. I could not see the marker numbers on my GPS without my glasses, so I asked my wife to read it to me. She said ONE, then “no that’s the depth”. Then I said some words that would be censored here and quickly throttle down, real quickly. Just as we got throttled down we bumped bottom just a bit. It was totally my fault, I had the course and compass readings charted correctly, and I just drifted off! :smt021 Motored back on track slowly, it was less the 200 yards back to deep water, and then continued.
Friday evening we went to St. Michaels Winery for a wine tasting. After that is was back to the boats for more partying into the evening (sure hope they let us back!). Saturday was a day of touring the town, did some bicycle riding and some shopping. Later in the afternoon some of us went swimming in the marina pool. That evening it was a big dinner at the Crab Shack. After dinner what’s next, of course more partying on the boats.
Some of the boats coming in there are just amazing… Attached are some pictures.
The cruise over at 24 knots heading towards Kent Narrows. It took us two and a half hours and we used 44 gallons of gas.

The cruise back on Sunday was just great. Calm water all the way across the bay. Someone in a Sedan Bridge rocked our world a bit as we were coming into Kent Narrows. They were just leaving the six knot zone so we were slowing down and they were powering up. That must have been a three to four foot wake. Was that you Gary??:huh:
All in all it was a great trip and another excellent adventure.
