GET-ME-OUT-OF-HERE

     We are still working on the watermaker issue.  Before we left our marina, Long Cove Marina, we had been informed by our service tech that he was not able to develop a solution for our watermaker.   Yes, he was well in over his head.  However, he did locate a boat yard in Solomons, MD that would look at our system and possibly help us.  We arrived in Solomons, MD on Saturday.  This is a very busy place.  As we were approaching the entrance to Back Creek a sailboat under power cut across our bow from port to starboard.  When I say cut across our bow, we had less than 30 feet when his cockpit cleared our bow.  When I informed (without a radio) the elderly gentleman that he should learn the "rules of the road" his wife smiled and waved to me!  After making that "almost deadly entrance" we headed up Mill Creek to an anchorage at the mouth of Old House Creek.  If you have been following our blog you will know by now that we do not favor marina life.  And although we are not in a marina, this anchorage is just as bad as a marina.  Too much boat traffic, too much water skiing, too much tubing - GET ME OUT OF HERE.
