On the first trip for both crews in their new boats at the Isles of Shoals.

A decade later we're in the same boats on the same cruise (below).

Oh, Labor Day Weekend? Good old Hadley Harbor. A slow trip down Buzzards Bay in a shifty, light east wind. And a roaring ride home on a 20 kt SW.
Hadley wasn't crowded, but perhaps a few more boats than recent years. Lots of day trippers, opening up and closing anchoring spots. We anchored four times until happy. Nice to have the windlass! The Rocna grabbed every time; we just wanted a good spot for the wind shift to come in the night. So as small boats left - hey, let's grab that spot!
