Nantucket harbour

Great place for a beach but the current in the only spot for anchoring was crazy at 2-3 knots.  The wind was opposite the current when we returned from the beach and had to move in fear of dragging. Now on a mooring ball. A little chaos but we are all safe😆

Engine repair

We had a strange squeal from the engine in high revs when charging in neutral so I investigated. It looks like the belts were loose so I tightened it and the sound went away. We burned some rubber so that means I need to keep an eye on this and get a full check out soon. One more repair in a nice place at anchor.  Most of my blogs are now on nordicbelle2.wordpress.com.  I will put some ideas and maintenance items on this blog.

My new haircut

Michelle shaved me with a number 6 razor. 

Heading out soon onto Long Island sound

We stayed one night a Brewer Capri Marina in Manhasset Bay. Very nice but our boat felt small beside our neighbours.

Yesterday went to Lion King and Ellen's Stardust dinner

The show was nice and dinner was quite entertaining. 

Left NYC today

We spend the past week in NYC at the Liberty Landing Marina. A great jumping off point for downtown

Coffee anyone

Having expresso for me and decaf for Michelle. Are we polar opposites?
