Jody Argo Schroath talks the Alexandria waterfront battle plan with her friend Kathy this month. They tour the city as it is, currently, and discuss what lies in the future of one of the "last 'undeveloped'...big city waterfronts around."
This month's boat review features the EdgeWater 245CX, which is part bow rider, part center-console. It crosses the divide by wearing both titles well.
It's time for one of our most robust features ever! July means that you get to review all of the top marinas along the Chesapeake Bay. Check them out on our marina maps that cover Maryland and Virginia!
