I haven't posted in a long time. Mostly because there isn't much to report. Once I returned to Penobscot Bay from Canada the cruise started feeling more routine. I spent a lot of time visiting the cruising grounds of mid coast Maine on my 2017 trip.
But routine doesn't mean not fun. I love Penobscot Bay. There are so many interesting cities, villages and secluded harbors I can't imagine ever getting bored with it.
I'm not in Newport, RI. I did a long overnight sail from Casco Bay Maine to Provincetown RI (about 110 miles). Next I sailed across Cape Cod Bay, which was filled with Humpback whales, to Onset MA at the western end of the Cape Cod Canal.
On Thursday I road the strong easterly winds on a fast, but wet passage to Narragansett Bay for a few days to attend the Newport boat show.
The weather this week looks good for getting farther west and I expect I'll be back in NJ in about a week.
