Our tentative one-week cruise plan for ASA 106 – Advanced Coast Cruising is to sail up and down the Chesapeake Bay, where we can actually learn nighttime navigation and identify other watercraft and lighted buoys and landmarks. Various stops may include some of the following locations: Solomons Island, Great Wicomico, Indian Creek, Hampton, Crisfield and Tanigier Sound, Choptank River, Oxford, St. Michaels, Wye River. We will be entering and departing some anchorages during nighttime hours as well as making some overnight stops at various marinas along the way. This is a great course for students to become familiar with our super cruising area on the Chesapeake Bay. ASA 106 standards do not require any offshore sailing.
