Thanks Brian. Annapolis is easily within reach but I haven't considered Sail Time. I'll look them up. I did contact a charter agency out of Annapolis but a 3 day charter was way too expensive. My experience is dated, an older boat, few of today's modern systems like this new fangled self-tailing winch fad, so getting hands on, I believe, will greatly improve everyone's trip.
