[Public-List] Moor or Dock in the DC area

[Roger L. Kingsland]

Hi Folks,

This is a little premature but, since the topic came up,  I also have boat
location questions.  We are thinking of keeping Pi ("PERFECT intentions",
AKA good old #148) somewhere between Baltimore and Annapolis because that
area looks to be the shortest drive from Pittsburgh.  Checking Google Earth
(such cool stuff), it looks pretty industrial south of Baltimore and
Annapolis proper is too crowded for us on both land and water.  That leaves
from Stony Creek down to the Magothy River.  I did contact the Maryland
Yacht Club in Rock Creek (http://www.mdyc.org) which seems like a good fit.
Any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much,

Roger 148

John --
We have a slip at Podickory Point Yacht and Beach Club off of Rte. 50 near
the Bay Bridge.  It's great in that once out of our slip we are on the Bay
in 50-100 yards.
The drawbacks are: Rte. 50 traffic deters us from going out Friday evenings
or midday Saturdays, and the channel sometimes silts in enough that we're
bumping sand (if only bumping!) if we don't depart/arrive near high tide.
We've looking into Herrington Harbor South, and my brother kept his Hunter
there.  It's about 30 miles south of Annapolis (I think in Deale
MD) but we've become attached to the events/raft ups/destinations closer to
the Bay Bridge.
We've looking to Fairwinds in Annapolis (Cape St. Claire area) but I don't
believe it has a pool which is a big draw for our kids.
Smiths is another option, on the Severn River, and a couple of members have
Albergs there.
Good luck to you.  Let us know where you think you'll settle both house and
boat-wise.
