Cruise Reports 2026 List

Everyone arrived at 9. We had the sweet couple Carol and Jacques who own their own Island packet and were interested in honing their skills to make some longer passages. Carol was a whiz at nav and Jacques was a whiz at the understated comment that would make us all crack up. Jeff, also a boat owner, had quite a bit of previous training and was very helpful with getting our 4th student, Bob, ready for his 104 exam. Bob, who had his previous 101 and 103 with MSS the previous summer, was eager to achieve the next 104 certification. Bob also was the only crew needing to test. It was tag team event, as the whole group was very helpful in getting Bob ready. We started the day with getting everyone’s gear onboard and then became familiar with the below decks of Navigator. We took a lunch break and then took Navigator over to the fuel dock for a pump-out and to fuel up. We had a light wind on the nose for both getting on and off both docks so we used a standing turn to the right for departure for both docks. Next up was planning our route to Godfrey Bay in Deltaville. Students identified waypoints, latitude, longitude, light list number, weekly updates to the light list, local notice to mariners and the coast pilot. That always takes a while but finished up around 6pm and then made our way to the popular and walkable seaside restaurant Stoneys for dinner. All were up at by 7am and were getting the boat ready by 8. One last trip to the onshore facilities and we were off to Deltaville. It was very light wind and had to keep the first reef in on the main (due to a needed repair that would have to wait until we returned to Rock Hall). Consequently, we needed to motor sail quite a bit to maintain a boat speed of 5kts. Loads of sports fishermen were out in the southern bay again this year. I assume a fishing tournament of some sort. As the wind shifted around to the south, the whisker pole would have been fun to set up but sadly we were thwarted by the same workaround on the mast that prevented us from using the full main. Not to worry though because with the preventer on heading down to run, the clew of the Genoa seemed to stay outboard fairly easily without the whisker pole. After a few hourly checks of the bilge we discovered we were taking on water. I had a look around and discovered water coming in the rudder post. That discovery was a little alarming but I checked in with Frank and it turns out that will happen on a slow downwind leg when the stern sits low and flat. Sure enough when the wind changed and we were on more of a reach, the water stopped coming in via the rudder post. We got in to Deltaville, got the anchor down, set, snubber on and finally got to celebrate with Happy hour that included sparkling water, carrots and hummus. Then, we made an easy dinner of spaghetti and salad. We split forces by half cooking and the other half planned the next day. Up at 0700 and off by 0900. Fishing Bay at Deltaville is sort of a masters class in navigating a shoaly river entrance. Shoals are everywhere and markers seem oddly placed. Also, watch out for the Piankatank River Light 10 whose shoal extends way past the marker. Luckily Jeff was keeping a close eye on the depth sounder and saved us just in time. A little farther out we tried a visual fix using Stingray point and Windmill Point just outside the Piankatank. Taking bearings went well as everyone got comfortable using the hand held compass. Wind was on the nose most of the day and very light so didn’t get the sails out until after lunch. It was a shorter passage so we stopped at the entrance on the Great Wicomico to do our Crew overboard drills. We practiced furling the staysail and blowing the main halyard as the boat came up into and thru the wind. Then, under power, the boat was maneuvered so that we put the crew overboard on the lee side of the boat. After 4 excellent COBs, we made our way into the Great Wicomico and were greeted by an enormous pod of Dolphins! It’s always the best to watch these beautiful, playful creatures. We went right in to an easy anchorage and Jeff made a chicken and tortellini soup and Carol lead the planning for the passage to Solomon’s. Great Wicomico to Solomon’s Spring cove marina today. We got up at 6 and left just after 8. We decided on an early start due to an afternoon weather system we wanted to avoid. After we rounded the east most marker coming out of the Great Wicomico, we headed north. We had a stiff southerly breeze that gusted time to time to 26kts. It allowed us to go wing and wing most of the day. (We already had a reef in the main due to work around with the track on the mast) so just furled in the Genoa as the wind built. Everyone steered with precision and we learned how careful one has to steer in rolly seas to prevent an accidental jibe. We had a preventer on the main so if we got too far off the wind we had a safety. We made it to Spring Cove Marina with about 2 hours to spare before the storm so we had time to go the pool, review knots, shower and off to dinner. By then though, the storm was almost upon us. 3 of us we hoping for a walk to dinner which was just over a mile. We checked the radar and power walked it to the Lighthouse restaurant. We made it there with 5 min to spare and then it came down in buckets. Phew. Not so lucky with wind and rain today. 20 plus knots out of the north and ebb current most of the day. Slow going. We left just after 0900 and got into Annapolis around 2000. Squalls, gloomy sky, wet and bumpy in short. But, about 2 hours south of Annapolis, the sky started to clear so at least the last part was ok. Also, as we came into the mooring field, half of the mooring balls were covered with signs emblazoned with DO NOT USE. We found one that wasn’t labeled luckily and we were in. Next morning, our other 104 boat (also on a class) came by and said they had been kicked off the same ball the evening before. Guess we got in so late no one was around to make us seek another ball. In the morning there was an enormous barge working on the moorings next to us. I think they were waiting for us to leave and I’m sure annoyed we were there. Guess we got away with murder. A thousand pardons Tom and Frank. Last day. We were so tired we left the last day of planning for the morning. Bob led this as he had to take the 104 test later in the day. Everyone else, got the boat ready and we were off the ball a little after 9 and on our way to Lankford Bay Marina in Rock Hall. We reviewed for the test and sailed a little on the way back. Tried to pump out at LBM but pump-out was broken. Got back in the slip, got Bob started on the test and the rest cleaned up boat. Bob passed with flying colors and I passed out certificates. It was a fun trip and hope all felt like they learned a little something. Yvonne Brandt USCG Licensed Master

The ASA104 is the most–how do I say this in a friendly way? Of the ASA classes, the ASA 104 is the most “precarious” of all. What I mean with that is that a group of people will arrive at the school, oftentimes from all over the country, and will spend three nights together in unknown circumstances. In the ASA101 and 103 we return to the marina at night, but the Maryland School requires three overnights: one mooring, one in a slip and one on anchor. Students for the 106 and 108 are recommended and thereby vetted, but for the 104, anyone can sign up. And I mean A N Y O N E. In other words, I always feel somewhat anxious before we meet on the first day, because one never knows. There is actually a maritime-based expression in Dutch referring to that situation when a socially difficult situation occurs, we say: well, we’re all in the same boat. In other words, we will have to figure it out together. Rick and Matt are father and son. I remembered Rick from the docking class he took a year before. Dave met Rick in the ASA101 class they took and remained friends. Rick lives on Davis Creek and is our neighbor. Whenever you see a jetski flying by, that’s probably Rick. Matt, his son lives in Philly. They are planning to sail together in their recently acquired vessel. Dave is from Milwaukee and is an avid sailor. He has a lot of experience racing and daysailing, but signed up for the class, because he was interested in cruising. My anxiety on the first day of class, that morning of the 14th of May, melted faster than an ice cube in a cup of hot Earl Grey. Of course after we first met, there were a few awkward, testing moments, like it always goes when you meet new people, but we were quickly to trust each other and did not waste much time chatting or getting to know each other, we went to work. First business of any day on the water is a thorough boat check, the Germans have a better word for that: “gründlich.” It refers to fundamental, as in, we depend on this vessel for our lives, we have to make sure everything is in working order. Since Matt and Rick just purchased a sailing boat with a diesel engine, we spent a lot of time discussing the, what I call, ins and outs. We have air coming in and out, diesel coming in and out as exhaust but also returning to the tank, hot, cooling water coming in and out. Then we have the cooling liquid, lubricant, oil filter, belts etc. After studying the engine, we took our time going over the information available to us on paper: notices to mariners, the light list, tide tables, maps etc. This set us up for the afternoon activity, plotting our course in life for the next four days. We at the Maryland School insist on plotting our course manually, using pencils, dividers and parallel rulers. Here is that word again: gründlich, we are all about teaching the fundamentals. We’d make Joshua Slocumb proud. While the students were plotting the course, I went to town to purchase the desired provisions. We decided to leave early in the morning. The plan was to sail about 25 Nm to St Michaels and the wind prediction didn’t seem optimal. To our surprise there happened to be a very nice breeze, and we sailed almost at hull speed on the genoa. We reached the entrance of the channel towards Kent Narrows around 11:00 hours. We dropped the sails and almost immediately ran aground in the channel. Apparently, there had been some recent shoaling in the channel we weren’t aware of, and there were no markers either. Sailing through any bridge requires concentration because there was a strong current and therefore no room for mistakes. The current made “hanging” in front of the bridge while waiting for the opening somewhat challenging, but Dave had a good grip on the wheel. After we went through the bridge, the weather changed somewhat; we lost the strong breeze and came into light winds. I like to do surprise man-over-board exercises by picking up floating trash (and help clean up the bay, of course.) This time it was of my own doing. I tried to crash a soda can (takes up less space in the trash can) but failed, and it landed in the water. We immediately called man overboard! and safely rescued the can from its eternal demise on the muddy bottom of Prospect Bay. The wind slowly left us to entertain other sailors, and we were left to use the combustion device to bring us in. We were supposed to dock bow in at E1 at the Chesapeake Maritime Museum, but to our chagrin, someone else was docked there illegally. Afterward, we found out the motorboat had engine trouble, but still, it was an annoyance. Now we had to back in because only E1 is along the quay, which allows for easy deboarding. All the other slips have tiny fingerpiers. With the help of the dockhands we were able to back in relatively easy and tied up for a night at the museum. The next morning we seemed to run the same scenario as the day before: low wind expectations versus a generous dollop of air. We had a great sail, mostly close reach all the way to Annapolis where we were supposed to stay the night on a mooring ball. Since it was a weekend, we decided to leave early in order to secure a ball in the basin. Even though we made good time, all the balls were taken and we had to wait for the bridge to open hoping to find a ball at Spa Creek in front of the Church (you never know). There happened to be a ball available. We moored like pros and took a brief moment to relax before we called the Annapolis Water Taxi to go to town. We showered in the mobile shower the next morning and enjoyed a copious breakfast that would sustain us the rest of the day. Before we left our ball, we called the Annapolis Harbor Pump Out boat to empty our holding tank. The operator, after seeing our Maryland School flag decided to grant us with a free pump out lesson and a barrage of poop jokes. Since we had a relatively short trip to our anchorage, we decided to go on an adventure and sail around the Annapolis harbors. It’s great to gain some steering experience in very crowded areas, from superyachts to inflatable kayaks; you will find it all in Annapolis. We had to motor to our anchorage close to Eastern Neck Island because the wind was not as kind to us as it had been earlier. At the anchorage, we enjoyed a meal and a spectacular sunset. The next morning the water was flatter than a penny on a slab of marble. After we pulled up the anchors–the night before we played with different forms of anchoring, we slowly made our way back to Lankford Bay Marina. Since we had some time on our hands, we finished the written test the night before, we decided to spend a few hours practicing docking. Looking back I’d say this was more than awesome experience with these guys, I recommended them all for the 106.

June 6, 2026: Navigator is at Mystic Seaport Museum Marina awaiting the arrival of the crew. They should be on board later today for discussing the plans for the training cruise and then get to know each other over dinner. June 8, 2026: Weather forecast from Captain Tursi - Looks like all of those northerly winds of last week have turned SW for next few days, but nothing too serious 15 or less. No tropical storms expected for next 7 days June 9, 2026: A message from Captain Frank - We are all set to get underway this morning. We plan on getting off the dock about 9:15 and passing through the bridge in downtown Mystic on the 9:40 opening. The wife of one of our crew plans to be on the waterfront, to record our transit and send it to us. So, look for that, hopefully. We will be taking on fuel as we depart, then it is off into the Long Island Sound, where we will set our sails and head for the ocean. Our SPOT tracking device is active, so you should be able to watch our progress. Remember, though, that it can be temperamental, so if it doesn't always show our passage, it doesn't mean anything bad. https://maps.findmespot.com/s/NRNV. We should be in Norfolk by the weekend or a little later. we will have a better idea after Thursday, as there is some weather forecast for then, which may impact our travels. Until we see you all again, stay safe! Wednesday June 10, 2026: Weather report from Captain Tursi - Your SW winds increasing overnight Wed-Th to SW 20-25 and moderating to SW 10-15 by mid day Thu. Turning W-NW overnight Th-Fri 10 kt and below. No tropical storm activity expected next seven days. Heave to early if needed Sail On! Thursday June 11, 2026: Weather report from Captain Tursi - As you know winds in your area continue SW 20-25 tonight, abating overnight to W 10-15 by midday Thu then fluctuating between SW to NW 10-15 and sometimes lower depending on your location until Fri. Tropical Depression Christina developing near El Salvador but course direction not yet clear. Sail On! June 10, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - After getting underway from Mystic Seaport Museum Marina and passing through the Mystic bridges, we traveled down the river and stopped at the Noank Shipyard fuel dock. We took on diesel and headed out. Once we were east of Fisher’s Island we set the mainsail and, a little later, the headsail. We were able to sail out of the Block Island Sound and into the ocean, but once we were in the ocean, the southwest wind really began to assert itself. Since our next waypoint lay right in the eye of wind, we are having to tack toward it. We have been doing four hour legs, but this morning, as the wind has backed more southerly, we are going to take a long leg to the west and try to get back to our original course. The crew is doing well, although the lumpy seas do have heads poking up from the companionway periodically to “grab a little fresh air.” Last night’s dinner, chicken and dumplings, was a hit with the crew and, as with the northbound trip, no leftovers were found Our first dolphin sighting was this morning about 6:30. This, of course, means today will be a good day. We are not far along on the trip yet to predict an arrival time, but we hope to be home before too much longer! June 11, 2026 Message from Captain Frank - There are times when the ocean is beautiful. Deep blue under a cloudless sky or obsidian black as the sun first comes over the horizon, sparkling a trail of flaming diamonds. Yesterday was not that day. The sea was sullen, gray and lumpy. We knew some bad weather was coming and we got ready for it. We had a pod of dolphin meet us about noon, dozens of them, with young pups just learning to hunt. We took that as a good sign, but hedged our bets. We put the second reef in the mainsail, and were already on the staysail, at 1600. At 1800, the first big gusts starting hitting us, so we lashed the wheel and hove to. Initially, the wind rose, then dropped back down and we thought that maybe the forecast was wrong. It wasn’t. By 2100, the wind was back with a vengeance and we were very glad we were tucked in, nice and secure. The wind sang in the rigging all night, finally starting to drop about daybreak. We were underway again about 0500 and at 0700, we kicked the second reef out of the main, set the Genoa and were fully underway again. The wind is still South of West, but we hope it will clock today and allow us to finally get headed to our waypoint off the Delaware Bay. By the way, dinner last night was “eat what you think will stay down.” We hope for a heartier meal tonight. We are moving so we might be able to predict our landfall in tomorrow’s message. June 12, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - Another exciting day at sea…well, maybe not. Given the boring nature of the weather forecast - winds from the southwest, 10-15 knots, seas 3 feet - we finally bit the bullet and started motoring directly to our waypoint off the Delaware Bay. Between the wind on our nose, the waves coming from the same direction and a foul counter-eddy to the Labrador Current, we weren’t going fast, but every time we tried to sail, we ended up going in the wrong direction! Finally, about 5:30 this morning, the wind went west enough that we could reset the staysail and we are now motor-sailing at a much better speed. Depending on what the wind does, we will do our best to get back to actual sailing today. Dinner last night was chili and rice, with raw veggies as an appetizer and rustic sourdough bread as a side. Yum! The last vestiges of queasiness have left the crew and we decided to have something with flavor. Our daily dolphin sighting came late, almost at sundown. We were worried that we would have a day without, but they came through at the end. Just before sunup this morning, we could see the loom of the lights over the New Jersey coast. It’s the little things that let you know there is a world beyond the boat. It is beginning to look like our arrival time is going to be early Sunday morning, but we may be close enough for phone communications Saturday evening. We will see you all soon! Friday, June 12, 2026: Weather forecast from Captain Tursi - Looks like the winds will clock around to the west overnight tonight and to the north by Saturday all below 15 knots. TD#1 in southern Gulf near Guatemala forecast to travel north but cyclonic formation not expected in next 7 days; less than 20% chance You're doing well. Sail on! Saturday, June 13, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - As I write this, we are about 50 miles northwest of the entrance to the Chesapeake Bay. If we were driving, we would get there in time for a late breakfast. However, we are on a boat, so it will take us most of the day. We are back to motoring. While the wind has finally turned to the NW, it has also dropped to about 5 knots. This is the joy of an ocean trip. The wind is diabolical most of the time. Dinner last night was the Suzanne-sponsored white chicken chili. A very hearty meal which was enjoyed by all the crew. Finally, a meal with some flavor! We had multiple dolphin sightings during the day and the gray bottle nose dolphin eventually became the predominant over his smaller, black and white cousin. We hope to see some today to wrap up the trip. Did I mention that we expect to be near land tonight? If possible, we will get into Cobb’s marina late this evening. This is dependent on us being able to get the OK from them. If we can’t, then we will go in first thing in the morning. Either way, you should hear from your sailor tonight. Sunday, June 14, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - We arrived at the marina last night about 2030, just as the sun was going down. We had enough light to get to our slip and get tied up, although, by the time the crew had packed their gear, cleaned up the boat, said their good-byes and departed, it was well onto 2300. David and I fell into bed - with the air conditioning running for the first time since we got underway. It is true that we could not run it offshore, but we truly did not need it this trip. After the first long sleep for a week, we arose the next morning, went to breakfast, and picked up our rental car for our return to Rock Hall. Initially, I had thought a \"small SUV\" was overkill but after loading our personal gear, our professional gear and the ocean passage making sails and equipment into the car, there was not a lot of room left over! Mystic was a great place to visit, the underway period both directions was the proper balance of effort and tedium and we are sure that the crew will have stories to tell. Captain Frank Mummert

May 27, 2026: The crew has had their last land based meal and they are settling in for a good night sleep before departing, Thursday morning at about 0900. May 27, 2026: Weather forecast from Captain Tom Tursi -Big Low developing way up north moving NE out to sea producing N winds for you in coming days. Moderate wind strengths until Fri-Sat when you may see 20-25 from N; lower nearer to coast. No tropical storms expected for a week in N Atlantic To follow the track of SV Navigator: https://maps.findmespot.com/s/K2S3" May 28, 2026: Weather forecast from Captain Tursi - Assuming that you are headed south to vicinity of C Hatteras then turning N toward Mystic, expect N winds 20 kt and below thru Friday then turning SW Fri night and back to NW Saturday with gusts to 25. May 29, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - We got off the dock about 10:00 yesterday and were out in the Bay soon after. We saw a few navy vessels, not all of them U.S. We think there may have been some foreign ships in Norfolk for the Memorial Day holiday. Once out of the Bay, we set a single-reefed main and Genoa to run out 75 miles SE, to clear the shipping lanes and add some length to our trip. Unfortunately, the true wind, out of the NW, wasn’t enough to keep up our speed over ground, so we had to motor-sail. In the afternoon, we discovered a huge batch of stowaways. A cloud of black flies descended on the boat and we spent several hours fighting them. They bit us, we swatted them and the result was that we won - I think. After a delicious meal in the cockpit, we settled in for the night, with an almost full moon lighting our way. Around 4, we reached our “mid-ocean” waypoint and proceeded to turn north toward Mystic. The wind had risen into the low 20s and was coming right in our faces, literally! The course to Mystic was 038 and the wind was coming from 030. We dropped onto the starboard tack, to try to move away from the Gulf Stream, but found ourselves moving south of our outbound track. We were sailing really well, but moving further and further away from our goal. After attempting to motor in the direction we wanted to go, we reviewed the weather forecast and set a new waypoint further inshore. We hope to take advantage of a predicted wind change later today to get us moving in the right direction again. All aboard are hale and healthy, and will be happy to talk to you all again soon. May 29, 2026: Weather report for Captain Tursi - Looks line a tough week coming up for you. Low E of Montauk producing Gale Force from N Saturday and spreading south to your area by midday Saturday; moving E away from you by Sunday as Low moves NE. Your winds turning S 10-15 later Sunday and turning from N 10-20 by midday Monday; increasing to 20 NNE later Monday. Another Low developing several hundred miles E of Norfolk on Wednesday producing Gale Force from N for you; lower winds nearer shore as Low moves E. Tropical cyclones not expected for next 7 days May 30, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - Yesterday was a day of extremes. We had wonderful sailing that took us nowhere near our destination and motoring which took us more toward of destination but was slow, noisy and uncomfortable. Since we couldn’t go directly toward our destination, we decided to come back more to the west and see if we could get a better angle. Also, we had a forecast that said the wind would move more to the southwest inshore. It did finally turn, a little after sunset and we were finally able to secure the engine and sail, first on a broad reach and eventually on a beam. Dinner last night was pasta and meatballs. All hands congratulate Suzanne on her choice of pasta. We have seen several large sea turtles over the past 24 hours and today, about 6, we were joined by a pod of porpoises, who stayed with us until almost 6:30. Every time we thought we had seen the last one go, another would pop up. At one point they were close enough to hear their “voices.” We have the possibility of some heavy weather this afternoon, so we may heave-to to ride it out. Keep this in mind if the SPOT trails shows us staying in one place for several hours. I promise we will be safe. It is looking like we may be in late Monday or early Tuesday. We will provide more details as we know them. Last but not least, everyone say happy birthday to Matt! May 31, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - Yesterday started out well, but by noon, we were unhappy sailors. The wind was coming right from where we needed to go, at 20+ knots, with gusts into the 30s. This gale had been predicted, so we were ready for it. We had put the second reef in the mainsail and had cleaned up the boat. When it hit, we hove to on our starboard tack and sat back to wait it out. The forecasts we were seeing indicated that it should drift off by midnight. We sat our watches in the cockpit, wrapped to our noses in our warmest gear. It was cold!! When the seas and winds did not abated at midnight, I began to curse the weather folks. However, it did start to die about 0100, and by 2, it was gone and we were able to get underway again. Winds are still light but are predicted to build during the day and we are finally headed the right direction. Dinner last night was “um, no thanks” so we will have our chicken and tortellini tonight, we hope! It now looks definite that we will be in on Tuesday rather than Monday. June 1, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - Yesterday paid us back for the heavy weather of Saturday. We were able to get moving in the right direction and by mid-morning, we were motor-sailing. By early afternoon, we were able to shut off the engine and enjoy a wonderful down wind sail. We shook both reefs out of the main and had the full Genoa out in 15-20 knots of wind. Dinner was the chicken and tortellini that had been pulled from the menu the day before. Dolphin and turtles continue to cross our paths, as did the fishing fleet out of Barnegat Bay this morning. We are above the latitude of the C & D canal, so we finally feel free of the Chesapeake Bay. This morning, the Sirius weather update indicated that we would have a cold front cross our path and the wind behind it would be light and fluky. For once, Sirius was dead on! Right at 5:00, we passed from a clear sky to a completely cloudy one and the wind veered 70 degrees and dropped to 5 knots true. We were already running the engine out of gear for a battery charge, so we put it in gear and soldiered on….I mean, sailored on! Right now, it appears we will arrive at the Montauk Light early tomorrow and be tucked in to Mystic in the early afternoon. All hands are looking forward to warm accommodations and hot showers. June 1, 2026: Weather forecast for Captain Tursi - Today, Mon winds NE10 increasing overnight to NE10-20. Tue light winds NE; overnight Tue-Wed SW10. No significant features in your area. No tropical systems next 7 days. June 2, 2026: Message from Captain Frank - As I write this, we are making our turn around Fry Point, on the eastern end of Montauk, and beginning our run across the Block Island Sound to Fisher Island. We have picked up the flood current, so we are hoping for a rapid trip across this twelve mile run. Yesterday was another good sailing, hard cruising day. The wind, which was light early, strengthened to 20 knots, gusting 25, out of the Northeast. We were able to sail a little west of north, toward Long Island, but we really needed to be going more northeast. Fortunately, as the day progressed, the wind clocked around until it was coming from the east, allowing us to make a curve with it until we were headed generally where we needed to go. However, with the winds came the waves and the combination of the wind-driven waves and the persistent swell made the trip bumpy. Since we didn’t want the boat to pound into the seas, we tended to be a bit further off the wind than a perfect course would dictate. Dinner was sandwiches again as anything in a pot would have gone airborne. We have decided to eat last night’s dinner for lunch today - chili and rice. We don’t care about the effects as everyone should be off the boat tonight! We are hoping to be in Mystic by early afternoon, so expect to hear from your sailors today. Thanks to all of you for letting us borrow them for this week and, when they tell you stories about how brave they were in the face of howling winds and towering waves, believe them. It’s only polite and may even be true! Captain Frank Mummert
