Looks my group won't be down until Saturday morning folks.

Here is a link for your viewing, of the portion of the Potomac River, from the bay, to the Yeocomico River, which takes you up to Kinsale. You can zoom and pan this chart.

Paul,

Olversons is on the south branch of the Yeocomico and is about 10 minutes from Port Kinsale, and as far as I know there is no fresh water over there.

Hope you all have a good time. I sure wish there was an easy way to come from my harbor in Lake Erie!

Take lots of photos and please share.
