Fickle Winds do Blow

Our original plan was to depart Durham on or about May 10. Approaching that date, we realized we had much preparations to do. That date was chosen based on the tide charts through the Cape Cod Canal, so the next date would be two weeks later. May 24 comes, and the weather, especially the wind direction and wave height has caused us to rethink. Our departure has been pushed back to launching Saturday 5/26 at noon (high tide in Durham) and heading down the coast Sunday. But with two more days of fog after that, we'll have to trailer to Providence RI and skip the open Atlantic. All these delays have let us prepare very well, and to make sure everyone and everything we're leaving behind is in good shape. But we're going to have to keep pushing each day to get back on track. 

We will travel as weather permits. But here's our latest proposed itinerary as far as Albany NY. At that point we'll have a handle on how far we can travel in a day and how desperately we want a day ashore.

Providence, RI: Sunday 5/27

Niantic CT: Tuesday 5/29

Hudson River: Saturday 6/4

Troy NY: Monday 6/13

Schenectady NY: Wednesday 6/15
