8/26/12: Departed Cape May around 12pm and headed to the Delaware Bay via the Cape May Canal. We headed to the Cohansey River due to severe thunder storm threat over the Chesapeake Delaware canal we were headed for. We have renamed the river Tom Tom's locker due to our adventures there. First the waves were picking up and we came into an area on our approach to the river that was saturated with crab pots. We hit one that had a smaller crusted black one that stopped us dead in the water. Tom jumped in the water and thankfully was able to cut it away in the rough current. What a fright he gave me! Then if that wasn't bad enough after we anchored in the Cohansey the anchor rope wrapped around the keel. It thankfully righted itself before Tom had to go swimming again. The Cohansey River though even with all the bad luck was an incredibly beautiful scenic place. The scenery included grassy marshes, ospreys and eagles.
