Default Chesapeake Bay this weekend.

If you are going to be in the area of the Bay Bridge this Sunday-please be aware that the Chesapeake Bay Swim is happening Sunday morning into the early afternoon. Last year 2 cats ran out of Annapolis and one veered directly into the swimmer lane. Because of their speed the patrol boats never got close enough to warn them away. Just remember that there are 600 people trying to swim across the Bay at the bridge and just slow down and look for the patrol boats-they will direct you where to pass. Tell everyone you know, the incident last year could have killed someone and almost shut down this great fundraiser for good.

Thanks

Hi Rob, according to the official event website the target start time is 10:30AM, so there could be a rolling safety zone through 2PM or so.

Hey Rob, thanks for the heads up. I'll make the change for you on our website.

Can't wait to see the Tiger, I figured there's no room for it at your shop. I would imagine it's a little tight in there cornering with a 42' boat. We'll have to catch up one weekend soon.
