The Nebo track gives the route NH took to cruise into Little Narragansett Bay where we picked up a mooring curtsey of the Watch Hill Yacht Club. Cruising The Race is always challenging due to currents, tides and lots of areas on the chart to watch out for eg. reefs, rocks, and shallow areas. Nana and Nandad have been to Watch Hill by auto however this is a first for boating. The channel around the north end of Sandy Point which takes you into Watch Hill and the Pawcatuck River is quite narrow and a little intimidating however the markers are easily visible and a nice slow approach took us into the bay which is simply beautiful. Very few boats are in the water at this time so once again we have the bay very much to ourselves.
Here is a picture of NH ( in the distance ) from Ocean House where we had a very light lunch. It is a very beautiful place and watching the surf while listening to the ocean is so therapeutic. The strong scent from the Rosa Rugosa is just magic. Once again the sunset was picture perfect while we took the opportunity to dine Al fresco ( although briefly) even if it meant Nana wrapped a blanket around her , dinner was perfect. A wonderful clear sky to view the moon, the Big Dipper, Cassiopeia, Mars and Polaris.
