Winds out of the northwest seem to channel down the Severn River, Spa Creek and Back Creek. Where the streams of air meet, particularly downwind of EYC, SSA and the Academy, the winds become quite shifty, with first one stream prevailing then another.

Lots of changes in wind direction and strength throughout the sail today.

Spent the time allowing the wind and my fancy to lead me where it would from College Creek to G"5" to the bascule bridge joining Eastport to Annapolis.
