Powerboating fun!

Our friends recently bought a new powerboat - a Mainship 30.  It's a beauty and we got to go on a cruise with them
They keep their boat in Padanaram Harbor, so we drove over & met them.  Then we motored over to Cuttyhunk harbor.  It's only an hour in a motorboat, but it can take a few hours in a sailboat.




It was a beautiful day, so there was a lot of boat traffic

Entering Cutty harbor - it's a tight entrance






Our friend's have their own mooring on Cutty, since they go quite frequently.  After we moored, Skippy (Chris' high school friend) had to show him the motor :)
It's a beautiful boat
We then took the dinghy for a cruise around the mooring field and then headed to the beach


We didn't go to the main beach - but just the beachy area along the harbor entrance.  More interesting to watch all the boats come & go - and they are non stop





Quite a few others gathered along the beach to 'boat watch'

There were some beautiful ones to see too - wowzer!
and this monster too!

Soon it was time to head back to the boat and head home

The raw bar boat came by, but we had sandwiches
and dark & stormy's (only one each, we were driving)

and we were off - back to Padanaram


Relaxing ride home






Chris got to drive







 Full day!  Glad the weather was so beautiful
