We hope to be arriving by boat. I keep my boat at a marina on Back River which is not far from the Inner harbor. According to my GPS it is only 6 miles from my slip to downtown,but to come out Back River into the bay then up the Patapsco River to the Inner Harbor is 22 miles. The trip will take a little over an hour.

I registered last October as a day attendee (I did not take a room at the Marriott). I planned on getting a slip at the Inner Harbor East Marina which is next to the Marriott. I called a couple of weeks ago to reserve a slip and was told that they are full that weekend because of the Fells Point Festival.
I will now have to get a slip at a marina farther away or just stay on my boat at my marina and drive in every day.
