      Are there any 424 owners interested in a raft up in the southern Chesapeake
      Bay this spring/summer/fall?
      There are 3 – 424s in the Mobjack Bay/ York River area that I know of.
      There are others in Deltaville, Onancock and Cape Charles.
      There are many great anchorages between Reedville and Yorktown.

      I’m not being terse. This is from my mobile.

      I will be on my way north in June and back south in october. Anchorages in
      the Piankatank, Rappahannock, Great Wicomico, Patomac, and Patuxent will be
      on my way north and south. Not to mention Onancock, Pocomoke, Crisfield on
      the eastern shore, plus Tangier and Smith Islands. I plan to cruise back to
      many of those locations and others this summer.

      We’re on the hard there now… plan to splash today and return to Mobjack
      Bay marina this weekend.
      Where do you usually keep your boat?

      Hi Rick,

      I have had my boat at the Severn River Marina for almost two years. I lived aboard for two and one half years, however moved to Newport News a little over two years ago. I have pretty much reworked the interior and recently replaced all the hoses and belts on the diesel. I did not sail my boat last year. I am having a new bimini and full cockpit enclosure fabricated by Signature Canvas in Hampton. They installed the framework a couple of weeks ago and made the pattern for the bimini. The weather has not been favorable for them to get the job done. They thought it would be complete before March 31. My lady is retiring the end of May and we plan to spend the summer and fall playing on the Bay. I am contemplating moving the boat to Salt Ponds Marina in the fall when my contract with Severn expires. I was spoiled by floating docks and that is why Salt Ponds will probably be my new marina.
      Cheers,Bob

      *Capt Bill, Bob Fine, Bob Hawkins*
      It looks like we need to plan something in September when Bob Fine is in the
      Chesapeake.
      *Bob Fine* – I usually take a 1-2 week cruise in September. As we get closer
      to September we’ll need to look at dates.
      *Bob Hawkins* – Eclipse is in the water at Severn River Marina now. We plan
      to take her back to Mobjack Bay Marina this weekend (not sure which day).
      How is the entrance to Salt Ponds? At one time it was pretty tricky getting
      in and out of there.
      *Capt Bill Tice* – don’t you keep Charisma in the Deltaville area? We have a
      week off June 11-19 and will be anchoring in Fishing Bay or Reedville on the
      weekends as we go North and again on our return. Maybe we could get together
      then.

      Since I may not be heading south of the Patuxent until October, my preferred
      September location would be closer to the Potomac or even north of there.
      Reedville isn’t one of my favorite places, at least when the Menhaden plants
      are processing. However there are lots of anchorages on the Great Wicomico
      that are not so close to the plants. Also consider anchorages on the
      Potomac – Coan River, Yecocomico River, St. Marys River, and Smith Creek.
      I’m also up for any of the anchorages in Fleets Bay.

      Hey Rick, Saw Eclipse yesterday. The main channel to Salt Ponds was dredged to 8-9 feet depth and 150 width in February. Dredging for the channel into the marinas is taking place this month. September raft up sounds great.Bob

      As September gets closer, we’ll find a suitable location.
      I’ve been anchored in the creek at Reedville when the wind shifted and blew
      the “smell of money” our way… whew it was not pleasant!

      Hello RICK, & ALL-
      Yes, Deltaville is CHARISMA’s hm-port – Stingray Harbor Marina, slip A-30.
      A September raft-up is best for me, and can arrange to be off from WEST
      with a two week notice. I’m flexible regarding location. Fishing Bay, off the
      Piancatank (SP) would be a good choice (except for John, perhaps), and I
      could park a car ashore to be available for anyone. But whatever the group
      decides is best for me.
      Rick, Please get in touch just before you come to Deltaville in June.
      CHARISMA may still be slip-bound, awaiting the return and/or installation of
      her new heat exchanger from SEN-DURE. Incidentally, thanks everyone, for your
      advice in the matter. Rather than go directly thru SEN_DURE ($538=
      Cupro-Nickel), I bought it for $475, inclu shipping through GO2MARINE, the
      internet division of

      Hi to All,

      Sorry I am a little late jumping into this discussion – we have been out of
      pocket for awhile.

      We live in Onancock – across from Deltaville – on the Eastern Shore of
      Virginia. Jubilee is berthed at the Town Marina – very small. There is a
      nice large anchorage with good holding. We would be interested if dates
      work.

      Anyone down this way plan on a stop in a great little town with some nice
      eating. We will show you around – we have wheels available.

      Cada,
      Haven’t been to Onancock for at least 20 years. Of course that is very near
      Crisfield as well. I destroyed more brain cells in that harbor than I could
      ever afford to lose on repeated visits over Labor Day. Larbor Day …
      September, maybe I can give up a few more brain cells, not like I can take
      them with me. One more destination to consider.
