• Anyone sail to Nantucket this season?
  • In town, it's fun to observe Nantucket style.
    • Like most of southern New England, I give Nantucket high marks for public access.
      • To each his own
        • That sounds nice Paul. We like it all which gives us a big area to explore.
          • Cutler is only about 50 miles from MDI
        • Have to say I'm with Paul on this one....
          • We've had Roque Island all to ourselves, and have shared it with several boats.
          • I am so envious, Peter!
            • Great beach...
              • You guys should read this new book.....
                • Thanks for the recommendation Peter. I'll look for it.
                  • "The Circumnavaigators" is free online (but don't ask me where - I forgot)
                • We were just there
                • Bound for Roque Island
          • I'm not crazy about Nantucket either
            • agree with Jerry
              • I can already anticipate the response
                • Can't defend the hiring of outsourced foreign students
                  • Given Housing?
                    • Hot bunking? My point exactly. That's why we need labor laws.
                      • There are places all over New England that we visited this summer
                        • So you're saying it's good to bypass labor laws and outsource local services?
                          • What's violating labor laws?
                            • Small business is not exempt from minimum wage laws
                              • Why not hire them as a service person at $2.13 an hour
                              • Aside from Dan y's observation
                                • most state also have minimum wage laws that don't have a size limit
                        • P-town
