Penobscot Bay, Maine Day 1

Sherry Pickett

Left Rockland in light winds and calm seas, sunny blue skies. Sailed for a short while on beam reach then motored to our destination when winds were too light for our downwind direction. Good opportunity for getting to know Joe & Suzanne’s boat. We arrived at Warren Island State park with the plan to hike on the 70 acre island but the mooring balls were only suitable for smaller boats and there wasn’t room to anchor comfortably. So the decision was made to carry on to Holbrook Island. As we passed Camden we saw a huge fleet of vintage and classic yachts in the area for the Camden Classic Cup Regatta this weekend.
