October 2024

We started the month from Cole’s Point on BenjOllie.  A couple of days of relaxation and we were off to Olverson’s Marina just 12 miles south on the Potomac.  Westmoreland Yachting Association was having a weekend event that included a Saturday Morning Breakfast and an evening Low Country Boil along with lots of comradery and relaxing time.   There was a good group of 10 to 12 WYA boaters and a large group of locals from Olversons that joined us.  I wished I’d had my carera.  Pictures next time.

The rest of the month was devoted to selling the Maxum cruiser we’ve owned for several years.  We bought it in Florida, used it there, and motored it here to Virginia in 2021.  We have had a year’s worth of heartache selling it, but finally, it is sold.  We are now cruising on BenjOllie, a 1990 Grand Banks Trawler.

The rest of the month was spent completing our medical appointments, enjoying the town and getting ready for the trip down south, at least to Florida on the ICW and hopefully to the Bahamas.
