This is the Wayfarer dock Camden Maine 10-27-2010. This is the best marina I have been to. great service, beautiful town, exceptionally clean facilities. Sorry this pic is out of order but you can't insert on this web site and I do not feel like deleting 10 pics.
Sails up at 5 knots 4 knots of speed at th heaviest she has been 2500# of gear, 100# crew, full fuel and water. Screecher is 950sq' jib is 350 sq '
This is not the scooner from below but we saw one on the way out and I like this picture from earlier.
2 miles out. the only ski area in the lower US that you can see the ocean from.
Out of order but nice pic 10-28-2010 Camden Maine
One mile out no wind
morinign of cast off 10-29-2010 left at 13:00
tank back in place 10-29 2010 12:00
tank going back on board
aluminum and empty so not bad
Tank was found to have a leak in the evening of 10-20-2010. Probably from cold changes in October finally gettting to the 19 year old tank. Leak was at the seam. Wayfarer did a great job getting her off the boat, welded, and reinstalled in 28 hour from my request. this did give us time to do some chores like seting up the sea anchor and preparing the new XYZ anchor but the time would have been better spent doing a day sail to get the crew used to reefing and the captain relearning the autopilot which you do not use in Maine because of lobster traps.
David checking out the instruments.
Notice the pitch of the ramp and the view under the dock ( none. Also notice the scooner leaving to the left.
the ramp at high tide 15 foot difference . we get a view of the bay at high tide.
Ed English and Bruce Johnson from Georgia. Ed was the most inexperienced but a hard worker and picthed in very well He did not get flustered when things got tough. Neither did anyone else. Bruce was one of the best crew I have had. Good experience and discussed options very well.
Reiner Schick from Arizona and David Edsall preparing the Sea anchor. No one on board had use one except me for practice once. Plan was to practice as we got to Newport. Riener is an excellent crew very experienced and large knowledge set.

The raked 63' 600# carbon fiber winged rotating mast made in a movie studio in Vancouver by Keith MacKenzie the former owner and shipped to Hawaii for stepping.
35 gallons of extra fuel not yet stowed in bilge. plan wasted this underway with the light breezes we had for the next 36 hours.
Wayfarer Marine from Camden Maine downtown. I am drying the dark blue assym spin.
