Saturday 17th June.

Winds were light and behind us again.  We tried motor sailing but the winds were too light.  The current through the Cape Cod Canal was predicted to set west at 4:37pm, so we planned to arrive at the entrance at 3:30pm, thinking that there wouldn’t be  much foul tide left at that time.  There was – we had 1 knot against us until 4:30, just as predicted, then we raced through the canal at 6.5knots. 

We picked up a mooring courtesy of the Point Independence Yacht Club in Onset, 41 44.36N 070 39.01W.
