Day 98: Smith Island Marina to Somers Cove Marina, Crisfield, MD (10NM, 1.3 Hours)

Again the winds were strong from the south-east.  The channel to the east of Smith Island is approximately four nautical miles long.  Brian went slowly noting PVC poles have been added to mark shoaling in the channel.  Once exiting the channel and the protection of Smith Island from the 2-4 foot waves coming up the Chesapeake Bay, we throttled up and made a run for Crisfield.  Not much has changed in Crisfield’s harbor since we were here a few years ago with the Hampton Yacht Club.  It was much too hot and humid to stroll the town; we opted to stay cool on the boat.  Later as the sun set, we walked over to dine at the restaurant we enjoyed the last time we were here - the Crisfield Crabhouse Grill and Tiki Bar.  We viewed a beautiful sunset as we enjoyed our meal on the outdoor porch.  Late night, the storms hit with thunder, lightening and lots of rain.
