2005 Photos: Moonlight Cruise
We went to Great Oak Marina Restaurant on Fairlee Cr. this year because of a special event at Tolchester. Farilee Cr. was p-a-c-k-e-d. Nonetheless, we had a great time. Sorry for the paucity of photos. Your Fleet Webguy wasn't doing his job. Thanks to Lynn Thornton-Conner for these.

| On each cruise someone has to be grounded. Warr de Mar was elected for this one; and, on an ebb tide as well. | It didn't take long for Warr de Mar to be fast aground making necessary a kedge necessary to pull them off. Here is Warren running the anchor out to be ready when the tide comes in again. | This is Southern Cross on the Sassafras R. on the way to Charlestown. |

| Here is a view So. from the Northeast R. at the bluffs over the river. That's Turkey Pt. in the far distance. A very hot day, you can see the haze. | Cheri Lynn, Lady Glendale, and Southern Cross round G9 into the open water off Charlestown. | After a HOT-HOT day, Don, Lynn, and Pattie relax during knosh time before dinner on Warr de Mar. |

| Joe and John discuss the nature of Cheri Lynn's mechanical problem. | Having settled on Worton Cr. Marina as the best option for securing repairs for Cheri Lynn, Southern Cross proceeds to tow her to Worton. See the related story by Clicking Here | Once at Worton Cr. Marina we wasted no time cooling off in the pool. |

| After the pool and shower, we enjoyed a very nice meal at the Harbor House Rest. | It was all we could do to make our way back to our boats after closing down Worton Creek (small children can close down Worton Cr.) | The next day, Cheri Lynn was hauled in preparation for her major repair.

We had originally planned to meet up with Cheri Lynn and other boats on Bodkin Cr. Friday afternoon. However, the weather threatened for both Friday and Saturday so we decided to head for home a day early. The heavy heat and humidity experienced for the week had much to do with our decision. |
| While Cheri Lynn effected repairs, the rest of us spent the night on Swan Cr. Here we are aboard Warr de Mar for a joint dinner. | This is the wonderful sunset we enjoyed after dinner on Swan Cr. |
