2012
Summer Cruise
| |
EDGARTOWN,
MA
|
| |
Sunday July 8th ending on Saturday
July 21st 2012
This will accommodate those wishing
to attend the New London Tall Ship Festival.
The outbound destination
will be Edgartown - we're planning to stay there for three
nights. Other ports of call are as follows: Stonington,
Block Island, Cuttyhunk, Edgartown, New Bedford, Newport
/ Jamestown, Watch Hill and Mystic Seaport
The Tall Ship Festival
is currently scheduled for July 6-9 but fleet members
should be aware that New London officials are still working
out details - things may change. For those wishing to
attend, accommodations will be critical! Officials expect
300,000 visitors and if only 1% show up by boat, there
will be about 1500 boats looking for a place to stay.
New London city moorings are probably the best place but
they are not accepting reservation at this time - and
they don't have a firm date when they will start.
Two marinas that
are at least establishing a wait list at this time are
Thamesport Marina (1 860 437-7022) and Crockers Boatyard
(1 860 443-6304)
Of course, there
are many other possibilities but fleet members should
not wait to reserve accommodations if they plan to attend
this event by boat.
