Solomons Island, Virginia

We sailed out into the Chesapeake in winds 15-25 mph and 3 foot waves with the current behind us.  Our destination is Solomons Island, VA, 45 miles south. We sailed the entire way and this is a first!  It’s a good thing because we are having engine problems, the RPMS’s keep fluctuating and the engine dies.  We tucked in on Friday in a very protected anchorage in Solomons Island.  This is the first time we are using our new Mantus anchor we purchased at the Annapolis Sailboat Show and we love it.
