I have a friend like you only he has 10mph on me....never a dull moment.

In the pic it is late and a lot of boats moored. Do they stay the night or is it safe to navigate at night.

Watch out for Gary, hes trouble Just Joking!


It is safe to navigate at night, most of the boats dont move after dark. Sometimes there will be cops out there, so if you leave late just keep your eye out.

The Potomac has a lot to offer. From Aquia you have access to alot of locations, events, restaurants. To the North Tims restaurant and the Occoquan and all the way to Washington DC (National Harbor, Old Town Alexandria, Georgetown, Nationals park to name a few) good water to run but can get nasty if the wind is right. To the South. Fairview (watch out for the locals and umm well let's just say some others ), then you've got Port Tobacco (only at high tide) Gilligans look out for the Swamp water, and then the river get wider past the 301 bridge but there is a lot more to explore south of the bridge.

Get yourself a chart and also ASK or get together with someone in the area. There is not much you can't do in your boat.

The most common early symptom of Alzheimer's is difficulty remembering newly learned information. You are a little young for this, but clearly you are suffering from something that has effected your memory.
Perhaps you could ask the passengers in the back seat of your boat to help you remember what happened!!
