May 12, Saturday – Day 15:  The first wave of Triathlon swimmers hit the water at 7:00am.  We counted 7 waves – about 50 people per wave.   The last wave hit the water about 8:30 and the band started at  9:00am.  It was a shame to leave  with all the activity on the waterfront, but we need to inch closer to NYC as  we never know what the weather may do.   We pulled our anchor, departed Spa Creek and headed north to the  Sassafras River.  We went about 5  miles up the river and anchored near Georgetown – but Georgetown was too far  from the water so we just hung out on Rickshaw.  A huge change from Baltimore and  Annapolis.
