Seadaddler< I have friends that sailed from Havre

de grace about the 3rd of November one year and had adverse weather for the full length of the bay. Spent the winter in Hampton, Va. Several good stops on the upper Chesapeake. There is a grocery store within a block of the waterfront close by Tidewater Marina in Havre de Grace. There is a very sheltered anchorage at marker 10 on the Sassafras river with full services 1-2 miles up river. This is only about 5 miles from the bay. The others will have to advise you beyond here. Also pay strict attention to navigation from the Elk River to Havre de Grace. It looks like a lot of water but much of it is very thin.
