[Rhodes22-list] Right from the get go

[Mark Kaynor]

Alice,

I've got to second Roger's suggestions. We have "Cruising The Chesapeake - A
Gunkholer's Guide", and really enjoy it. Every time we've cruised the
Chesapeake, we've brought it and the Maptech chart book along. I don't have
any experience the "Mid-Atlantic Waterway Guide" so I can't speak to that.
