Who Else Was in Annapolis for the Boat Show?

Yes, we saw lots of boats and gear at the Annapolis show a week ago, but also lots of people. Last week we posted images of some of the many West Coast connections we met at the show. We thought we’d pass on a few more of the friends you might recognize from our West Coast sailing world.
