Kickemuit Clam boil at the Van Vlecks CHNYC July 18-19, 2015

July 18,2015

     We left our slip at 11:30 with the hours at 3109.  We went to the Kickemuit River to grab a mooring for night.   We got there at 1:50 with the hours at 3111. 

     While there we went to the Van Vleck’s annual Clam Boil.  It was attended by many CHNYC members.  Mike Van Vleck came out to show us to our mooring ball.   Our first mooring ball with the new boat.  Elaine grabbed it on the first try like a pro.  We looked like we had been doing this for a long time.

     We ran the generator for the first time also.  We ran it for about an hour to charge the batteries.   It worked perfectly, the fridge stayed cold.

     We returned to Brewer from the Kickemuit.  We left at 8:45 and got home at 11:45.  The engine hours went from 3111 to 3114.  We cruised home north of Hog Island and almost into Bristol Harbour.
