But first, let's talk about the wonderful Windjammer Parade. We were given a strangely cool and cloudy day, in the midst of all this heavy heat, and it really was perfect weather for the half-day sail that we do to accommodate sailing to Rockland for the Windjammer Parade. We pressed through the fog and burst out into the throng of tall ships—it was an enchanted moment. Gliding between so many other stately ships was breathtaking. We had a great time watching all the action, and enjoying each others' company. The tide was so high that people watching the parade of sail from the Breakwater were walking back through water.

The spectators trying to walk back across the granite pathway that is the Breakwater. With an exceptionally high tide, they appear to be walking on water!
Look at all those magnificent ships!
Now if that wasn't enough excitement for ya, on Wednesday, July 21, we will have our first Half-Day Sail and Lobster Bake of the season. This is one of my favorite events of the season. We sail out to Warren Island and dock there for a while, so the passengers can hike around and explore the island while we prepare a traditional Maine Lobster Bake on the beach. Come make a wonderful memory with us!
