Day 118 Mystic River CT 25 nm today 24443 nm to date

Terrible night with the boat rocking a lot-most unpleasant. Not unhappy to leave at 8:30. Had to avoid a fleet of pleasure fishing boats getting out of the harbour but after that it was a straight 20 nm shot on mostly a beam reach. Full jib and partial main kept us going at 7 knots, very pleasant and made up for last night.

I can see fishing in a lonely remote spot but shoulder to shoulder on a crowded boat ??

Passed north of Fishers Island and then took down the sails to begin the winding trek up the river to our marina.

 

 

 

 

Late afternoon we took an Uber and enjoyed walking around the well preserved old town and had a lovely dinner at the 1750 Captain Daniel Packer Inne.
