Even in the best of times, boating can provide a much-needed escape from everyday life. So it’s no surprise that this year, when everything is, well, not the best of times, more and more people are taking to the Bay to get away from it all. Slipping the docklines and taking off for an afternoon or longer sounds pretty appealing, we admit, and if it happens to be the perfect social-distancing activity, that works too. Maybe a vacation closer to home (especially if you can bring some of home with you) will remind you of all the things you love right here on the Bay. ⚓︎
