another vote for Rock Hall (with a warning)

Like the others, we found Rock Hall to be a reasonable compromise between distance driven and a great place to sail from. Lots of good marinas to choose from. Nice little town with a West Marine and a grocery store. Easy day's sail from destinations like Annapolis, the Miles River, the Chester River, the Magothy River, Baltimore, Worton Creek. We lived on the north side of Philadelphia (Ft. Washington) and it was usually a 2 hour drive (except Friday afternoons in the summer - I 476 was terrible!) Avoid it if you can.

The warning comes because we found it to be a life-changing experience. We liked the rural area so much that I retired early and we moved here.
