A very salty but short trip! We left at 11AM to time the current in the canal, needed to be on an ebb tidal current. Coming through the canal was quick with 4kts of current and the wind behind us. Exiting the canal into Buzzards Bay is where things became sporty. Winds gusting up to 33kts, formed waves behind us, same direction as current but very chaotic. Happy we only had a few miles of it before our destination. Picked up a mooring ball, very well explained and good directions given ahead of time by the YC. Very large mooring field, even in the protected harbor winds are gusting strong. We will be waiting out the weather here for a couple days. 

Sandwich to Beverly YC, Marion
