Fans got me thinking – what was your hottest trip ever? I think our record was many years ago when my wife and I were out for 10 days. Each day the heat index was well over 100 and every night found it still in the mid-80s or worse at midnight with 100% humidity. We slept in separate bunks to be a little cooler and it felt like breathing through a wet rag it was so humid at night. Fearing a mutiny, I left Oxford at sunset and we ran all night to Georgetown on the Sassafras. The water there is fresh, so you can swim nettle free and we got a room at the Kitty Night House for the next night. The day after that a cold front came through and we sailed all the way back to Annapolis on a reach with 15 knots and low humidity ☺ Joe Coquina
