Her first trip… sailing to Martha’s Vineyard

We have had a very busy spring season and we are behind on our posts, (we will fix that soon, I promise)

Today we want to share our trip that we are planning. We have not yet taken Ocean Phoenix on any kind of sail outside of a couple hours here and there. At the end of July, we are sailing to Edgartown on Martha’s Vineyard, and we are very excited!

We are planning on leaving Barrington on Sunday and sailing to Cuttyhunk first, we will stay the night there, hopeful there is a mooring available! Monday we will make our way to Edgartown where we have reserved a mooring for two nights.

We are looking forward to sailing, fishing, and sightseeing. We may take our bikes for when we reach land. The one thing that is exciting us the most the chance to get the boat out and really sail it and to see how it handles, and to get some experience under our belts. We have not really sailed for more then a couple hours at a time and now our first sailing vacation and one step closer to being cruisers. 😁⛵

Have you made this sail? What do you recommend? What was your experience? We would love to hear from you, drop us a line!

        Easy to spot. It’s a white hull.
