Member Transit
New Bedford to Nantucket

6pm Saturday, June 14, 2003 through 11:30am Sunday, June 15, 2003

 

We made it in to Nantucket this morning at 1130.  All is well..  We had 20 members and 3 volunteer crew for a total of 35.

Motorsailed through Quicks Hole by 2030.  With fair current and barely any wind we drifted under fore and jumbo up towards Woods Hole.

Fog was thick at points and the cold front that came through  only gave us brief showers and not much wind.  The sun finally came out as we made our approach to the island.

About half the members are staying to enjoy Nantucket and the other half will continue on with the ship to Woods Hole tomorrow before returning home.

We will open the ship to a community potluck dinner tonight and our four participants from UMASS Boston will join tonight as well.
