Inner harbour |
Looking
at the charts deciding on where to go next we spotted Baltimore had a
couple of anchorages in the heart of the city so why not visit? We
anchored to the east of Anchorage marina and west of the area called
Canton. We found we could either leave the dink on the free public
dinghy dock and walk across the road to Safeway supermarket, or turn
right to West Marine. The holding isn't great. We shifted 10m in a
strong wind and other boats took a couple of attempts before their
anchor set.
To
go into the city we dinghied half a mile north and tied up to the
dock at Captain James restaurant which was safe and welcoming. From
here it was a fifteen minute walk.
On
the first day we bought tickets to view the historic vessels that are
permanently docked in the inner harbour; a submarine which saw action
at Pearl Harbour, a Coast Guard boat, a lightship and the last sail
powered wooden boat of the US Navy.
