Day 1: Boston to ?


Left the dock about 09:30 for a 3 week trip. wind supposed to be 15kt westerly. started out much weaker and more nw. finally turned more westerly by boston light. target for today will be Pkymouth.

Leaving Charlestwon.  "Chin-chin" in tow

Boston behind


Straight down-wind.  Sailing wing-wing


zzzzzzz

Bob drives past Boston Light


Wind was up and down all day. once we rounded Minot light, we got a better angle and were hitting 8kts.

Making sausage and peppers for lunch; and weak gin and tonics.

We attempted to anchor in Duxbury harbor but when we got to the anchorage, it was full of mooring balls. Guess its time to update the cruising guide. So Bob played communications offer and hailed the harbormaster who guided us to a ball for the night. complication: they only accept checks! I smell a software contracting opportunity.

Our spot for the night at Plymouth

We're going to sit tight on the boat tonight. Linda is starting on the Salmon dish for dinner. Maybe dinghy to town for breakfast tomorrow.

Morning in Plymouth (day2 technically)
