Bay was nearly empty this overcast morning with a small craft advisory and gale warnings for tonight and tomorrow. The Woodwind came out of Back Creek (start of season?). The Coast Guard was out with three fast boats due to a US Navy submarine anchored in Annapolis Roads. The Annapolis Maritime Museum skipjack was out. And there was one other sailboat. That's it.

Headed out with a single reef in the main. Shook out the reef immediately after turning for home.
