We’re back in Wiscasset!
We had a great time in Tenant’s Harbor. We decided to sail back to Boothbay Harbor on Friday and Wiscasset on Saturday. We sailed for four hours on Friday! Then about 5pm the wind died and we had to motor into Boothbay. Awesome day!

It was “expensive boat” weekend in Boothbay Harbor. There were several mega-yachts there one of which was a huge sailboat. Unfortunately it left before we could get any close up pictures.
