A peaceful stop at Cuttyhunk; one of the top 5 places we love to go by boat. This particular visit was quite unusual in that, we sailed there (from Quisset Harbor), entered from the east and when we arrived at 3:30 only 7 boats were using the 45 total available moorings.
The requisite stop at the Corner Store was made (Cuttyhunk has the BEST t-shirts) , lookout hill climbed and we wandered around on solid ground for the first time ( for me) in days. The not-to-miss oysters from the Raw Bar Boat were delicious and we should have ordered more.
Tomorrow we’d set sail for Block Island.
Transiting the Cape Cod Canal
We’re half-way home, passing thru the Cape Cod Canal. Wide and attractive, with walking/biking paths on both sides, the canal was easy to transit. We had made sure to go through with the current.
After saying good-bye to York Harbor we continued south and ended up in Plymouth, MA where we anchored in the harbor. Benj had never seen Plymouth Rock, so a quick trip in for a few supplies and a peek at the Rock, then we were on our way.
A stop at Brewers Fiddler’s Cove to fill up the diesel and water tanks was our only docking of the trip. Russ was a pro and we snugged up alongside the dock just as sweet as can be.
