Chesapeake Flotillas - 2010 Cruises
I am offering cruises to my family and friends for the northern and central portions of the Chesapeake Bay. Custom cruise planning is also available to all sailors. Call Rob for more information at 908.672.3609.
A guided flotilla cruise is simply a fleet of cruising yachts sailing to a common destination each day. The flotilla is supported by a trip leader who will sail on his own boat. You may charter your own yacht or request assistance from the flotilla leader. Either way, it may be possible to put experienced crew aboard your yacht to assist with sailing the vessel. Participants get the benefits of a bareboat chartering experience and an experienced guide to help you find and enter lesser known anchorages and towns in the cruising area.
Cruises start from Rock Hall,MD. Two-day trips run Saturday through Sunday with boarding Friday evening. Three- and four-day trips start on Friday, boarding Thursday evening. You are welcome to charter a boat and follow along with me. Haven Charters is convenient and offers great boats for charter.
My 2010 trip schedule is available below. I am offering several cruises on my boat, Bay Poet, on the Chesapeake Bay in 2010. Click the links below for more details on the trips. I hope to draw sailors from the Black Boaters Summit and the Universal Sailing Club as well. Click here for information on a European sailing adventure being planned for September of 2011.
