Voice of Experience: Shoal Water and Thunder Squalls

I am a desert sailor. My wife, Noelle, and I live in New Mexico and normally sail the small inland lakes scattered around our very dry state. On arriving in Norfolk, Virginia, one sunny Thursday afternoon, we were looking very forward to sailing with our good friend Mike and his wife, Heather, on our first cruise on Chesapeake Bay.

Tides are an essential part of coastal sailing, so don’t forget to look at the moon once in a while.

As a yacht broker, many people have talked to me about wanting to buy a boat, learning to sail, and then taking their own boat
