Hi all, 
I apologize for not stripping my previous response to Rick. 

Enjoyed the video of past rendezvous and saw myself at the first one at Mystic 
Seaport. I will not be bringing the boat but will try and drive up to share 
beers w you guys. Mystic is a favorite place of mine.

Rick, 
I've run Cape May to C several times and found I could stay in the tide all 
the way up. I time it to leave Cape May after low tide, so it is flooding in as 
get to the shipping channel. I run just outside it on the Jersey side and hit 
the C at slack after High tide. I run the C as the tide switches and ride 
the ebb south down the Chesapeake. The last time I ran my boat alone and ran 
from Cape May to Sassafrass River in one shot. Going the opposite way you don't 
have the tide helping for as long, because it is a wave headed West and you are 
headed Southeast, so the tide helps you for 4 hours maybe. Best to time it so 
high tide happens twice the day you go, like 5am and 5pm to get two ebbs. Get 
through the C at 6am and then into a favorable ebbing current where the river 
is narrow, run south with the greatest boost from the tide, then after about 4 
hours, you'll loose the tides help so get out of the adverse current, and just 
keep speed up as best you can for a while until the tide fights you and then 
reverses again, helping you again. 

Love Cohansey River. I winter stored my boat at Hancock Harbor for 7 years. 
Great people. Docking can be difficult because of the strong currents, but I 
usually timed it to arrive near slack water, and got so I could do it solo. If 
the tide is running, just anchor out till it settles down. Things can go wrong 
quickly when it's running at 5 knots.

It's just under 65 miles from Chesapeake City to Cape May. Hitting the current 
right is critical if I want to get there in under 12 hours. I've found that a 
confluence of favorable wind and current is as common as sightings of the 
Jersey Devil. If worse comes to worse, I can duck into Cohansey Cove for a 
break. 12 - 14 hour trips are no problem as long as I'm not crashing into 6 
foot square chop not too uncommon on the DelBay with opposing forces. But, 
you're absolutely right about the canal route being the way to go.

If I recall my days of sailing between Annapolis/Rock Hall and the Jersey shore 
correctly, Annapolis to the C canal is a longish 12 hours. Lay up in the 
basin on the south side of the C in Chesapeake City. Catch the eastbound 
current to get blown out into the Delaware south of Wilmington and lay over in 
Cape May after a 10-12 hour trip. Then up the Jersey shore and out to Montauk 
would be an overnight.

 

Takes a lot of miles and a couple of nights at sea off  vs. the trip around the 
Delmarva Peninsula.

David,

 

I plotted an all outside trip out as well.  Down the Chesapeake and up outside 
LI from Norfolk.  Added up to just over 500 miles iirc.  If I decide to make 
the trip, I'll keep an outside route as a contingency if the weather holds. I 
have an autopilot but I haven't seen friends go on sale on Defender.  With my 
winning personality, that might be the only way I could get one.  As it stands 
right now, I'm on vacation from 9/2 - 9/19.  Plenty of time.

Tim,

Oh yeah!  I plan on using the C I taught myself how to sail on the
Delaware in a C-22.  First boat I'd ever owned or operated.  It's 92 miles
to Cape May versus over 250 miles for around Cape Charles.  I was just
looking for entertainment purposes.  So 92 miles to Cape May and 210 miles
to Mystic around Montauk.

Rick, I've found the C & D canal takes off a lot of miles over the Norfolk 
route.  I know the Delaware can be a pain, but have you checked that out?

Rick,

If you have a autopilot and a buddy it is easier, with a lot less traffic and 
current concerns, to take her outside around Montauk Point...

Hope to see you there!

My “man-cation" is during that timeframe.  I’m trying to decide if I want to 
single hand each way from the Chesapeake.  I charted it out last night at 
around 325 miles if I take the narrows into LIS.

I agree, lets get those registrations in early so we can finalize
everything at the Mystic Seaport.

They are really stepping up to the plate to help us have a great time and
we would like to return the favor.  September is not a slow time for them,
they have lots of Yacht Clubs doing fall weekends and they are giving us
the entire North dock!

This will be our 5th anniversary!  There is no doubt every single one has
been loads of fun.  Let's make this the biggest and best Rendezvous yet.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to call or email me.
