Here's a few shots from our Cruise on Casco Bay (Maine), last weekend:
Portland harbor, Friday:
Had a small meal at the Inn on Peak Island, Friday night, then biked around the island:
Then back into Portland harbor to DiMillo's Marina, for the night, The pics are Saturday morning before heading out:
Chebeague Island, for some bike riding, Saturday:
Notice the fishing work boat, high & dry at low-tide, next to the pier (doing bottom work):
Lobster boat, fully loaded and ready to head out and set the "pots":
Heading up Harraseeket River, in South Freeport, to Brewer's Marine for Saturday night. After docking, biked into Freeport (home of L.L.Bean) for some very awesome pizza:
Saturday night got very interesting ..... we got 20 to 30 knot winds with gusts at 40+ .... coming in on our fully exposed port bow (they had us on the gas dock). Spent the night adding & adjusting lines and fenders ..... and getting an ammusment park ride. Sunday morning was dead-calm and warm:
Went out in the bay to explore more islands on Sunday. As we got past the islands and into more open water, had 4' to 7' rollers and waves. No problems for the boat.
Spent Sunday night back at Brewers in South Freeport. Got the bikes out and headed into Freeport for a dinner and then a visit to L.L.Bean (had some items to exchange). Got back to the boat about midnight.
Monday morning was again, calm & warm. Hang out, then head back to the trailer, in South Portland. We want back on the outside (ocean side) of the islands. Nice rolling 6-footers, spaced a few seconds apart:
