Josh, there is no way you can get into Tilghman with 6.5 foot draft unless they dredge either side of Knapps Narrows. Right now, it is about five feet at best on the west and maybe five and a half on the east. Oxford has great marinas but hardly any ‘real’ town. Went into Cambridge Municipal about a month ago, churned some mud with a 4 foot draft boat. (I pick up boats for the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum’s Donation Program, so get around to much of the Mid Chesapeake area).

For that matter there are a few more charming places on the eastern shore which I'm perfectly willing to consider (Cambridge, Oxford, Tillman Island) and I'm sure more which I am simply unaware of. I was concerned about excluding people by pushing too remote. Feel free to review the the maps and see if there are any ports of call which I overlooked. Having a medium amount of amenities, things to do, and places to eat was more or less the consensus of the survey. Annapolis, Solomons, and St Michael's were overwhelmingly suggested by the survey respondents. State your case for your preferred port of call. Bear in mind that you may also become the embassador since I may not be as familiar with the available services. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B8pEh5lnvP1yMUdWdWRha1FxMG8 I draft 6.5' so depth is a regular consideration for all of the discussed ports.

LOTS of things to do ashore for the shopping inclined. When we lived on the Severn many a cruise got derailed by Naptown. We would pick up a mooring Friday night after work and instead of heading out Saturday, breakfast ashore would turn into a walk which went by some shops my wife liked and ………………………still there Sunday. Saint Michael’s would be my next pick after Annapolis. Joe Coquina _______________________________________________ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.
