Those who love sailing and the Chesapeake Bay might take a moment to read this message from @maryewenson and @spinsheet magazine. We were in our mid 20s when we co-founded the magazine and it continues to serve the community so well. issuu.com/spinsheetpublishin… #sailing #annapolis – at Annapolis, MD

Thanks to @lifeof_scoop for rebooting this nice profile (ca. 2020) in his excellent Naptown Scoop email newsletter. Naptown Scoop had 1394 subscribers when this first ran. Two-and-a-half years later it has more than 15,000. Wow! #Annapolis naptownscoop.com/journal/myn…

Kicked off the season with a four-hour, sold out Lighthouse Cruise aboard the Schooner Woodwind. A booming southerly kept things fast and interesting. We covered about 35 miles including two close passes at Thomas Point and some time above the Bay Bridge. #Annapolis #Sailing
