Not an ideal day, but not bad either. We left the Cohansey River and traveled down the Delaware Bay into the wind again. We had the benefit of the tide, and thankfully the opposing forces didn't make the water as choppy as the day before.
We got to Cape May and anchored near the Coast Guard station. The boat anchored next to us was from Sandwich, Ma. Once we got settled we took our dinghy over to their boat to chat with them a while. Come to find out, they keep their boat at Kingman! Plus, our friend Tom Maddigan was also anchored at Cape May. He is bringing his boat from Baltimore to Woods Hole. Some how it is comforting knowing someone that is traveling the same route as us.
The wakes at this particular anchorage were pretty bad. There are numerous marinas in the inlet that have hundreds of the exact same sport fishing boats. They must of had a huge sale on sport fishers and everyone in NJ bought one. It is too bad they don't require taking a course on manners when you purchase one of these types of vessels.
At 10pm one of these special individuals shouted across the anchorage from his passing sport fisher..."I F*#$^%G HATE SAILBOATS"! I always find it amazing how a little beer and a little darkness can make someone feel so tough!
