Moving Forward Again

After a week in Cape May trying to fix our starboard engine (to no avail), and talking with a whole lot of people about options for repairing or replacing it, we left this morning at first light (7 AM) and with perfect winds and tides made it all the way up the Delaware Bay, through the C&D Canal, and into a snug anchorage in the Bohemia River, at the northmost point of the Chesapeake Bay. We're headed for a yard in the Severn River in VA (in Mobjack Bay) where it seems they have the expertise and the reasonable rates we need to get us going again. We may stay at anchor tomorrow, depending on wind direction, but at this point we plan to go where it makes sense to go each day rather than trying to push against wind and weather. May not do another update until we are in the yard, but the most difficult part of our journey is behind us now, so we're breathing easy and plan to enjoy the next few days!
