We left Chrisfield and the Bay was a bit choppy, but not bad. We headed for an anchorage near Hoopoers Island. We wanted something that protected us from the winds. The reviews indicated this was a good anchorage, NOT!!!! We were concerned when we entered the area and found no significant blockage from trees, land etc. The area was open and the land low enough to allow the wind to stir up the waves. All I can say is that it was a very very long night of rock and roll and I don't mean the musical kind! We were constantly checking our position throughout the night. It made for a very sleepy morning and long day on Friday.
We hi-tailed it out of the anchorage early morning and headed for the Choptank River. It was a much nicer day on the water and the anchorage was much calmer with a beautiful sunset. Peanut was not to happy because this was the second day that she could not get off the boat. To far to row ashore and no real good place to land the dink.
