May 19, Saturday, Day 22 - We finally saw dolphins - the first ones we have seen this year. We are 8 miles from the Atlantic. It has been a beautiful day cruising Delaware Bay - the weather and water could not have been better.  We had planned to raft up and have dinner with our new friends Stan & Coleen on Next Endevour , but a crowded anchorange and high winds altered our plans.  We ended up at Utsch's Marina - but it wasn't an easy entry.  In 35 knot winds and a strong current we had to make a tight 90 degree turn from a narrow channel into the narrow marina entrance.  It was scarry - but Jim did a great job of us in the slip safe. 

This post is a first from the Weebly iPhone app. Sweet!!

We aslo stayed at Utsch's Marina...8 days while a n'easter blew...75 MPH winds. We were in front of the pagota. Some great navigatioinal challenges getting in and out as I recall!

Stay safe
