Sequoia Log:
27 May- Depart Onancock headed to Tangier Island. NW winds ended up on the nose most of the day. Sequoia and MI decided to try Reedville, VA instead. Close reach single fetch across the bay. Anchored on east side of Reedville peninsula. 35 nautical miles.
The anchoring options at Tangier Island were not appealing and the group decided to make a try for the marina at the island. The cruising guide gave depths of 5 ft at mean low tide, so Sequoia and Motu Iti (both draw 5'6") decided to push on to Reedville back on the western shore instead. We had a nice fetch across the bay and got in anchored and rafted with Motu Iti before dark. A little grilling and life was grand. The three other boats in the group reported a great time at Tangier. Headed for home tomorrow.
