Weather just like the previous days; light morning winds, dead calm, then great sailing all afternoon. Getting a late start meant we had cleared Cuttyhunk by barely half an hour before the doldrums hit. But for entertainment we watched a pod of harbor seals on Penikese island.
Eventually we got some good wind and sailed briskly with a reefed main all afternoon and into the cove behind Third Beach near Newport, RI. And we have live music on the beach! As it turns out, it's a church revival band, and while the first hour was all instrumental, as the sun was turning rosy, voices were added singing Alleluia! Gloria! Praises! Probably 150 people gathered.
