The Coast of Maine: Pretty but Challenging

2 years ago

It is nearly September and the hard dodger is complete, so it's time to cast off the mooring hawser and head out on a short cruise up the Maine coast. Even with the help of my 3.5hp outboard, Maine presents many challenges to the engineless or under powered sailor. Tidal currents are a factor. Add to that a lot of fickle winds and a coastline strewn with reefs and ledges. Yikes! Luckily I was spared the fourth factor: dense fog. On the other hand, Maine is a gunkholers' delight, offering some of the finest anchorages anywhere.
