It's such a large area with tons of hidden coves and great marinas. We used to sail in the San Francisco bay but the Chesapeake is really something. Maybe we can meet up this summer. I'd love to see some of the things you've done to Dolce Vita.

We’d like that. Swan Creek, just outside of Rock Hall, is a frequent weekend anchorage for us.

You could spend a lifetime cruising on the Chesapeake and not see all of it. This is our 11th year with our 323, and 39th year on the Chesapeake, and we’re still loving it.

Blue Sky is in Swan Creek! I'll PM you in a few weeks to see what your schedule is like. We will probably be down there most weekends this summer. Blue Sky needs a little more attention before we take her out but it's not much.

Dolce_Vita:
We'll be a while too.  We have a lot of work needed, and our marina is still closed to the public.  On top of that, i'm dealing with my wife's recent knee replacement, and a flooded rec-room & basement from a flash storm last tuesday.  (I've never sunk a HOUSE before ;) ! )

SailRxSin:
Congratulations and she looks like a beauty!

Ed, thanks for the information on the hatches, my v-berth has a slight leak and was wondering the best way to start that repair job.

Thanks SailRxSin. Looks like we may be going through similar projects on our boats. I decided to pull the hatches as Ed described. If your aluminum frame is not that bad you could just replace the Lexan and rubber seal assuming your leak is not through the frame and deck. I had a little effort in finding the tinted UV/scatch resistant Lexan. Most suppliers don't carry the UV/Scratch resistant type or want you to buy a 48 X 96" sheet and Lexan is pretty expensive. PM me if you want the name of the supplier that I bought it from.
