A few administrative details...
Raft-up time is 1100 which should give folks traveling or fishing before hand time to make it to the creek. Feel free to come earlier if you'd like as several folks have indicated they might spend Friday night on the hook.
The primary raft-up location at this time is in Whitehall Creek adjacent to the 6kt mark. This is the wide area of the creek where Ridout Creek, Canal Creek, and Whitehall all intersect. The area should be free of the boat wakes that plagued us out in Whitehall Bay.
When entering Whitehall Bay from the Chesapeake at red ATON 2W, continue to the mouth of Whitehall creek where you will see a red, green, red... The entrance to the creek makes an 'S' so stay within the marks as it can get shallow at low tide. Our boats should be fine, but sailboats run aground there all the time.
2 more marks, a green and a red, and you will be there.
The typical radio channels can be busy on weekends. Ch 68 is taken over by the Annapolis water taxis, and the channels in the 70's are dominated by Buffy and Chad droning on and on about how much wind they see, or who they rafted up with recently. The weekend sail-racers use those channels too. :roll:
I will have one radio on
Ch 16 and another on
Ch 11, so if you need directions or want to check in, give me a call. Let me know that you are approaching and I'll get some water shots of your boat as you get close.
If you'd like my cell number and don't already have it, drop me a PM and I'll give it to you.
Questions?
