Plymouth, Mass

We sailed from Boston to Plymouth which was only about 30 nautical miles but we had winds up to 40 knots. Wow!!! It was an interesting docking in Plymouth but Captain Bozo did awesome. so we arrived safe and sound. We are docked at Brewer Plymouth Marina which is only about 20 yards from the "ROCK". Below is Plymouth Rock as it appears today.  It is roughly one-third its original size, due to erosion and souvenir-seekers.  The rock is now enclosed in a protected area. Also went on the Mayflower (a reproduction built in 1957). Quaint little town with a very nice quiet harbor. Tomorrow we head to Cape Cod Canal where we'll stay at Sandwich Marina to wait for the current to head thru the canal.
