JULY 14-16 - Cruise to Delaware City Hosted by Foster Schucker
MTOA Cruise to Delaware City - July 14 -16 Come visit one of Delaware's most historic towns! Delaware City is the gateway to Philadelphia and the C&D canal to the west. At it's peak it was a busy transit port for both Chesapeake and Delaware Bay commerce. Fort Delaware had a place in the American Civil War. A walkable town, Delaware City has everything you crave on your boating weekends. Fresh seafood, ice cream, antiques, a living blacksmith shop, it's a chance to travel back in time. There is something for everyone here.
