Maryland - Who's out there?

I think that may have been Aquapalooza. Not sure if it was last summer or back in 08. You were probably there.

It was a good day :thumbsup:

How big do I need to go on my next boat to get 3 babes on the bow? I'm thinking of upgrading.

You’ll be fine. If you need the extra space just let me know, I’ll make some room!
 
Now Tim, are you gonna make us start calling you "Wakevus44"?

You pulled out of HMI once and made a turn to the right about 40' off my starboard bow while I was on the hook. You were only going about 4 kts and your wake damed near made me spill my drink. I yelled at ya on the radio, but you must not have heard me. I thought you were just passin' close by to catch a look at the two blondes that were layin' on my bow.

At any rate... slow down, partner. You're working with some serious tonnage there. Give us little guys a break. :grin:

Sorry man!

She don't go any slower than 4 knots.

I've only been to HMI once, so I'm guessing this was Aquapalooza 2008? That whole place was one big wake!

That's why we left and ain't been back. No offense, just not my cup of tea.

Oh, and I probably was trying to get a closer look. That's the risk you take when putting those blonds up there!

Re: the nine mile ride to the bay... the 6 mile per hour zone ends about a mile from Skipjack... do people not boogie down the river from that point on? I know the river is narrow and my wake is big, but I don't make the rules. What's the prevailing local practice?

Yes, typically people open it up once they're past the no wake zone. The Sassafras does widen a bit another two miles or so, so sometimes we have to throttle back in that area if there's a lot of wake from other traffic.

Now that's what I wanted to hear! Otherwise Marylou lied to me when we were looking at the place. See you in the Spring.

That's alright, Tim. I saved the drink, and the blondes didn't go anywhere... :thumbsup:

'08 sounds about right.
 
Hey, we're on Kent Island, but have friends down on Tilghman and go there often. Maybe we'll see you this year. Merry New Year!

We are at Cacaway frequently throughout the season. If you notice several Searays rafted up for the day or overnight, with several dogs, stop over for a Sangria.

We'll look for you! We often hang out their as well.

Be carefull when the wind blows hard. It a very soft bottom and we have dragged during last years bigger storms. Otherwise a great spot. You can easily dingy over to Lankford Bay from there for ice and other provisions. The ship's store is extremely well stocked.
 
For service, I've handled everything on my own other than shrinkwrap. But if I needed service, I'd probably take it to Sassafras Harbor Marina as I've heard stories that Skipjack isn't known as the best in the area for service.

When we were at SkipJack, we used Outstanding Marine (410) 275-1200. They are absolutely what their name is - outstanding! Tell Rhonda and Skip I said hello.

I'm at Tilghman on the Chesapeake, new to boating but would love to get to know other Sea Ray folks.

I'm going nuts waiting for spring. Spend my time reading charts and planning trips. Right at the moment Solomons Island, Smith Island and the C&D canal are on my list.

Don't forget about Oxford and Cambridge on the Choptank. Both are good trips.
