Description
I have just purchased a 1981 Catalina 27. We will be picking up where my beloved Seafarer left off on the Chesapeake Bay. Aeolus II's home port is Galesville, Maryland, USA, just a few miles south of Annapolis on the Chesapeake Bay.

Sailing The Chesapeake Bay on a small boat
For the past 28 seasons I have sailed the Chesapeake bay on a small 22' Seafarer named Aeolus. She isn't the fastest or the slowest or the prettiest or ugliest, but she is mine and together we have sailed nearly the length of The Bay. She stays near Galesville, MD on West River (Central Bay, Western shore). I have sailed with my wife, Mary, from there North to the Sassafras river and South to Yorktown, VA. We have sailed in too many of the Bay's legendary squalls. I am in the slow process of a refit for her. That will include new sails, new winches, new lines, a new outboard, and new electrics. Of course I sail her as this progresses.
