Up and Back Down the Connecticut River - 340 Days To Go


July 17, 2010
Today, we traveled from Mystic, CT up the Connecticut River back to Petzold's, the Mainship dealer where we had purchased our boat.  Our friends, Vinny and Diana came along for the trip.  We made this trip to have some interior canvas work done and an inverter installed in preparation for our loop adventure next year.
The following Saturday, July 24th, we traveled back down the Connecticut River to Mystic.  My sister Nancy, my nephew Justin and his girlfriend Megan joined us for the return trip.  Below are pictures taken along the Connecticut River.



And finally, at the end of the day, a lovely sunset

Today is the Annual Mystic Seaport Antique Boat Parade.  The parade down the Mystic River began around 1:30 in the afternoon.  So Bob and I took our lunch up to the flybridge of our boat and enjoyed the boats as they went y the end of our dock.






Almost forgot!  To add some storage space in the master stateroom, you can never have enough storage space if you plan to live aboard for a year, we had some canvas pouches made for each side of the bed.  There are three on Lynda's side and two on Bob's side.  I'm sure we will make good use of these!
