Captain Johns Crabhouse and Marina is a boat ramp in Charles County, Maryland, on Neale Sound. From here SeaStatus scores 5 waters: Tidal Potomac from Cobb Island MD to Smith Point VA, Tidal Potomac from Indian Head to Cobb Island MD, Wicomico River, Potomac River (Segment 5 of 7) and Potomac River (Segment 5 of 7).
The main water here is Tidal Potomac from Cobb Island MD to Smith Point VA. Rivers are scored mostly on wind and current. Wave height is not part of the score, because a river has no real sea state; visibility and comfort make up the rest. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44042, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8578551, Mills Point (south of), Wicomico Riv., Md., the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 20.4 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
