ROCKLAND TO BOOTHBAY

August 28th

Trip Log 39.1 nautical miles

A little windy but sunny, lots of pot buoys to dodge again, but overall a nice trip.  Got a slip at Rowe's Wharf for the night at $50 a night with water a power.  Right at the end of the harbor next to the bridge, a great spot.  Bathrooms nearby.  Harbor Festival for a couple of days, wasn't very active but there were fireworks.

This is a new little marina they have shoe-horned into the spot, mostly for seasonal boats, transient if space available, I don't the could take a much bigger boat than ours.  Owned and run by two sisters, about our age I would guess,  who manage it themselves.    This slip has 4 feet at low tide so I wonder if we are in mud.

Boothbay is a fun town with interesting shops and restaurants, lots of cruising boats as well as local boats, and a picturesque village.

This is the footbridge that crosses Boothbay Harbor, up at the shallow end.
