Having completed the New Jersey ICW, we headed through the Cape May Canal then northwest up the choppy Delaware Bay. We found a cute little marina in Delaware City just north of the entrance to the C & D canal. Next morning we passed through the C&D into Chesapeake Bay - then on to Annapolis where we found a town mooring just under the bridge in Spa Creek. We arrived just in time for the first day of the Powerboat Show - and we found ourselves to be a very convenient 2-minute dinghy ride to the show dock. Joining us at an adjacent mooring was PDQ #23 Duetto with John & Diane Cummings aboard. |
In the C&D Canal we passed a nicely decked out Nordic Tug |
Catamarans rule! We took over a fair share of the available moorings in Spa Creek |
The somewhat strange-looking Endeavour Pilothouse 40 |
The much sleeker Manta 44 powercat - also here for the show |
I'm not sure why they thought this big black cloud over their boat would attract buyers? |
A model of Reuben Trane's latest brainchild, the DSe solar-electric powercat. Hope it works out.! |
I could scarcely believe this price: |
$100 K more than a PDQ with less than half the space! |
Another cold front blows through the well-protected mooring field in Spa Creek. That's Duetto in the background. |
