Well, finally!! Jule III left M dock of Herrington
Harbour North
(Chesapeake) at 0700 today accompanied by SY Moony of Kiel Germany.
Butch and Vicki waved a fond farewell to the gang. Just as we left the
harbor,
the Coast Guard issued a special marine alert (high winds, waves). It
was lumpy
but no real problem. For most of the day, we had a really great sail.
Of course, SY Moony scooted past us and left us in
their wake
(we are really slow, ... but good). BTW, This is their second
circumnavigation of the globe.

MV NanSea D decided to accompany us part of the way
South. Jule III, NanSea D, and Moony are all at anchor in Smith Creek
off the Potomac.
Of course it is raining! We are all concerned about Wilma and will
monitor it closely.
We are the comm station for the anchorage and provide periodic
Wilma-o-grams.
Tomorrow, we head for Deltaville VA, then Norfolk and South.
