Moving to Maryland

[baja andy]

I am running a 22' advantage citation w/a Blown 509 ci. I would like to go out in the Chesepeak and on the ocean as well. I also would like to stay in fresh water as much as possible till I can talk the wife into letting me step into offshore performance.
i work in bowie and live on the patuxent river.
the pax river is a great place to run your boat, it is fresh water,narrow and
winedy on the northern portion, and salty and wider on the southern portion.
the only good completely fresh water is lake anna, which is in virginia,
approx 2hrs from bowie.
but there are many other rivers that connect to the chesapeake bay from
annapolis and the surrounding areas.
you are moving to a great place for boating, also the chesapeake bay and
its tributaries have the best "blue crabs" in the world. good eatin
can't wait for the upcomming season.

I would take it that most of you put your boats in some sort of salt water. Is it a pain to clean them after and is there a place to either dunk your trailer or hose it off real good?
I plan on steppin into a larger boat in the next couple years, around a 30' with twins I would really love to get into the ocean boatin

Welcome to the East Coast. If you don't want to go Salt water, there are other options but with you being in Bowie, the closer water is probably salty. Fresh water, is around if you really want to boat in it. We make the trek 3.5 hours on the weekend to SML 500 miles of shoreline.

around here you are surrounded by the chesapeake bay and its tributaries
yes its mostly salt water, but as i stated in my posting yesterday the upper
pax river is fresh, and is very close to bowie "30-40 minute trailer ride"
and a great place to run your boat.
there is no salt to wash off there, but in other rivers that connect to the
bay it is all salty, the only place to wash off is either at home or a self serve
car wash.
