Heading North Again

[Wxx3]

This time we are going from NYC to Maine and Nova Scotia.

Using my Samsung Note, I am able to post pictures more easily, so I will be better about that this time.

Marinetraffic.com. and search for Dauntless mmsi # 367571090

Where are you now?


A log someplace?

 

[Wxx3]

Heading east in long island sound.
New Rochelle is off to my left.

 

[beachbum29]

Passing Plum Island?

I think it's called...

 

[Wxx3]

Plum island in about 8 hours.




An almost flat sea.

Plum island in about 8 hours.

An almost flat sea.

Is it still open?

 

[Alaskan Sea-Duction]

Cool an east coast trip. Keep us updated with lots of pics...

 

[Wxx3]

The water got down to 11' passing this lighthouse atop this shoal, Stratford Shoal Middle Ground.

 

[Wxx3]

Almost night

[beachbum29]

Anchoring off or pushing on with electronics?

 

[beachbum29]

Beautiful seas tonight

 

[Ben]

Heading South to Beaufort NC tonight.

AIS app works! Yes!

I'm so hoping our boat is done this weekend. Two months of refit and now just waiting for them to complete the detail and putting the new name on.

So impatient at this point.

And heading north to Daytona Beach

 

[Wxx3]

Getting underway in a while

 

[Wxx3]

Thats where the 3 headed cows live!

And the birthplace of lymes disease.

 

[Wxx3]

Nicest day so far.
Up early.
We'll spend 2 nights in Boston.

Must find a replacement fresh water pump.

You really did get an early start, I saw you drop anchor last night in the channel, a couple of minutes later I watched a boat named "sea-streak wall street" heading towards you from the South, it turned North and passed through the channel to the East of your position doing 36 knots!!.

Have a good trip, I'm watching intently as you head towards Nova Scotia, as I may be heading that way this summer.

Seems to be an epidemic of fresh water pump failures.

Well, at least we slept well

Heading off to Salem (marblehead) tomorrow, as their are boat stores there and I still need to replace my pump. My first option will not work with an accumulator.

 

[Wxx3]

Just ran aground.
Tide is coming in, so I'm waiting.

 

[Bilgewater]

Great story and pics! Looking forward to following your progress.

Looks like the Annisquam River? I guess it's too late to mention that you need to watch the markers VERY closely going through there.

 

[Wxx3]

that's funny. But I was. One of the reasons I don't like channels when single handing.

On the ocean now.

 

[beachbum29]

Glad your off and cruising again.

 

[Wxx3]

Just fueled in Portsmouth. $3.39 /gal

Comes with free diesel shower.
Who said nothing is free anymore

That pump runs at 40 GPM. Pretty easy to build up a lot of pressure in the tank.
