BYC Cruise Day #7

We headed out the next morning - destination - Cuttyhunk Island where our BYC friends were still staying

These boats behind Chris were so beautiful

 

 West Chop!

 The wind wasn't the best, so we only sailed a short time this day, but we did sail!

 Cuttyhunk - very small, but quaint

 Once we found a mooring, we took Bolts for his walk

 We ran into some other BYC'ers who loved Bolts, so we followed them to the beach

 Bolts made a friend

 Cuttyhunk is very beautiful

 Only a couple restaurants on the island open in the summer.  There are also a few of these tiny shacks that serve food too

 Another BYC picnic!

 What a cruise!

BYC Cruise Day #6

The BYC gang headed out  - to Cuttyhunk, another island.  Chris & I chose to stay on the Vineyard another day.

 

 We rented a car and drove around the island.  We were married here in 2005, so we love coming back.

 Menemsha

 We stopped to get some Chilmark Chocolates - time it right, so the line wasn't too long, whew

 Gayhead!

 Edgartown

 en route from Edgartown to Oak Bluffs

 drove past the 'jumping bridge'

 Then later in the day, we met one of Chris' co workers at their rental house in Katama

 It was beautiful!

 horses too!

Then back to the boat for a nap

 we noticed we had some Large neighbors.  A 116 foot yacht docked while we were away

 Beautiful sunset

 Bolts and me relaxing before bed.  Another good day!!

BYC Day #5

Fortunately no fog on the morning we left Hyannis.  We would have stayed until it lifted, but it was nice to wake up and have a clear morning

 

 Some really fun sailing this day.  Our destination - Vineyard Haven (Marthas Vineyard)

 The Black Dog Schooner out for a sail

 We booked a slip here.  It's so much easier when you have a dog.

 We took a nice stroll through VH

 Then relaxed on our boat for awhile (boom tent up again!)  It was hot!

 Our view - Black Dog restaurant (original)

 We met the BYC gang at a local park for some more good food! (The Day captains bring a 'drink of the day', and everyone else brings appetizers or dishes to share)
Nice view

 Two of our BYC cruisers were from St Louis, so we hit it off well.  Bob is moving to Bristol (part time), while his wife is still working.  And his friend Dave was along for the ride (he's currently living in London, England for 2 years for his wife's job). They were really interesting and fun guys.
