We had an epic beautiful day sailing, we waited in the harbor a bit as the wind was so strong and the small craft advisory was set to be lifted at about noon. After a less than perfect docking job by yours truly we set off with a NNW wind easily driving us down the coast, we realized we thought we could make it to Seguin Island under these perfect conditions. We lucked out with an open mooring there, and we went ashore to explore the beautiful island and trails and lighthouse. While we were there the wind shifted to the SSE and we had a truly lovely crossing to Boothbay Harbor complete with beautiful views of the Cape Newagen lighthouse. Between Seguin Island, Henricks head, and burnt Island it was a 4 lighthouse day! Pretty much completely perfect sailing, we spent the entire day sailing either downwind or on a broad reach. We found our mooring at the carousel Marina without difficulty and enjoyed our room at the Browns Wharf Inn in Boothbay Harbor. Excellent dinner at the tapas restaurant followed by favorite ice cream.
