We have a calm day, overcast with no fog and we leave Bar Harbor about 11 am and motor about 10 miles south to Northeast Harbor. We motor into Somes Sound, the only fjord on the east coast of the US, and then backtrack to Northeast Harbor.
We arrive at the Northeast Harbor Marina about 12:30 and we walk up the hill and explore the main street and the shops.
Northeast Harbor is a small settlement but claims to serve the wealthiest group of residents in this part of Maine.
Dave and Joyce Powell from Stuart arrive about 5 pm to join us aboard KOKOMO II for a few days of cruising.
They leave their car here and will pick it up in a few days and resume their driving tour of Maine and Canada. Dinner is at the Tan Turtle in a cozy pub atmosphere and is very tasty.
KOKOMO II completed the "Great Loop" over three summers from May 2007 to November 2009. The cruising plan for 2010 is from Stuart, Florida, up the Intercoastal Waterway to the Chesapeake, down the Delaware and around to NYC and up the Hudson to Lake Champlain, the Richelieu to Montreal, then west on the St Lawrence River to the 1000 Islands and Kingston, then across Lake Ontario to Oswego, the Erie Canal, down the Hudson to NYC and back to Stuart. kokomox2@yahoo.com
