The program began in the 1980’s when Mr. Claude Bain, III, former director of the Virginia Saltwater 2017 TOP TAGGERS Fishing Tournament (VSFT) under Some of the top taggers of 2017: Left to right: Lewis Gillingham (VMRC), Ed the Virginia Marine Resources Shepherd, John Knight, Sheldon Arey, Wes Blow, Trevor and Tom Embry , Commission (VMRC) approached Susanna Musick (VIMS). Mr. Jon Lucy at the Virginia Insti- tute of Marine Science (VIMS) about developing a tagging project on red drum. Bain and Lucy realized not only were critical habitat and seasonal movement data limited for red drum in state wa- ters, a similar situation existed for a number of other marine recreational species like black drum, cobia, speckled trout, and tautog.

  • Circumnavigating the Delmarva Peninsula
    Circumnavigating The DelMarVa Peninsula By Matthew B. Jenkins s/v Moondance June 2002 Chesapeake Bay Lighthouse Project http://cblights.com Circumnavigating the Delmarva Peninsula By Matthew Jenkins, June 2002 http://cblights.com The Delmarva Peninsula forms the eastern side of the Chesapeake Bay, separating it from the Atlantic Ocean. As it’s name implies, it covers three states – Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia. In June 2002 my wife, Gail, and I started from Deale, MD, about 15 miles south of Annapolis, and circumnavigated the Delmarva in our 28 foot sloop Moondance. We took two weeks and covered 515 nautical miles in the process. This is something a fair number of Bay sailors think of doing. While preparing for this trip we encountered a certain amount of difficulty finding information for the C&D Canal, Delaware River, and Atlantic passage segments. We were more apprehensive about some things then we should have been, and ignorant of things it would have been nice to know about. The following article is an attempt to address these issues while also documenting our trip to a lesser extent. Why do it? An obvious question is why circumnavigate the Delmarva? We came up with three reasons for our trip. 1. This was the natural progression in our cruising education. We’ve owned Moondance since 1997 and have been fairly hard core in our cruising of the Bay. We’ve bought into the “cruising dream” to a certain extent and the circumnavigation offered a “next step” opportunity for honing our skills including some small degree of passage making, with shift sailing through a couple days and nights.

  • Lighthouse Digest Doomsday List
    113 DONALD PLATT Lighthouse Digest Doomsday List The days are one thousand puzzle pieces. Shake the rest of them out of the box so they lie strewn on the flimsy card table in the rented beach house half a block from the ocean. The rain sluices down. Nothing to do, except wait for sun and work at the jigsaw my daughter started, but didn’t finish. Lucy’s assembled most of the pieces with straight edges to make four sides of a square necklace. Patricia, whose two daughters are almost the same age as ours, fitted more pieces together so that a lighthouse on stilts rises out of the water. Its 4th-order Fresnel lens shines from a cupola on top of a square, white, one-room house with a red tin roof, attic dormers, and a deck running around all four sides, fenced with a white railing, balusters like matchsticks. A sign facing shoreward says in white letters on plywood painted black: HIGH VOLTAGE CABLES CROSSING DO NOT ANCHOR. I’d like to live there away from everyone. Crazyhorse 114 Far from my father-in-law dying slowly of Parkinson’s, his enlarged prostate that won’t let him urinate anymore, so he has to be catheterized. They take the catheter out, but do not monitor him closely enough. He’s a liar, ashamed of his body breaking down. He won’t tell anyone that he can’t pee. He’s admitted to the hospital with sepsis—high fever, low blood pressure, rising white cell count—hallucinating. He almost dies.
