Day 3 of our loop (Thursday, June 19, 2025) We decided to stay in place at Crisfield Marina for another day and night. The temp is great at 79 degrees (at 9:30 am) and the sky is clear and bright blue. However, the winds are steady at 15 knots, gusting 25, coming from the SW. Since the winds were so strong, going anywhere today on the Bay is not our idea of fun. So instead of having a relaxing day at the marina, we unfortunately discovered that we had a leaking hose under our galley sink. Richard took the hose off and headed into the town of Crisfield to a boat repair shop that stocked the hoses we needed. It took us several hours of snaking hoses to the correct location behind the sink and down beside the fuel tank to the outside before we could call it good. We did get in a walk around the marina and looked at a nice historical display of clam claws, nets, and crab pots that were used back in the day by commercial crabbers and fishermen. The displays didn't have dates, but they looked like pretty old tools of the trade. Later this evening, before sunset, a ferocious storm blew in with waves that were crashing against the dock and wind that was taking anything with it that wasn't nailed down (our app said the wind was around 30 knots). It eventually cleared to the East and the sunset was spectacular, along with a magnificent rainbow.
