Its Official

Leaving our homeport Norton's Marina East Greenwich RI


Norton's Marina

After 11.3 nm, Our destination

Winds are beginning to pick up

Hopefully, tomorrow the seas will calm down
First, I would like to say thank you to the follower who so graciously sacrificed themselves for a semi windless morning. I guess it was not enough to appease the wind gods completely. 
We have actually left our marina and made it a whole 11.3 miles to Dutch Harbor and for those who know us it is one of our favorite anchorages. We arrived here at 11:30am and it was fine. Now at 4:00pm the winds are howling and we are rocking and rolling.
Tomorrow we hope to actually leave Narragansett Bay and head into Block Island sound and then Long Island sound. The goal is to get to an anchorage at Duck Island.
