Log of s/v Bellerophon

This morning was a late morning. I woke up at 915 and Ross and Jim were still in bed! Off to town to find some coffee. I found three coffee places and had a cup at each! I never did find a diner, but the Bagel Bouy makes a pretty darned good ham and cheese omelet. We've been watching the weather fairly constantly and it looks like the remnants of Alberta will pass well to the south of Nantucket tomorrow. The forecast for LI Sound and BI Sound both look good for a transit, so we're bound for BI tomorrow. We're planning on leaving as close to 8am as possible. I anticipate a good day's sail to Block, but we should be there by dinner time at the latest.

Sag Harbor is a gorgeous place, something of a cross between Wickford and Newport. The money seems newer than either, but in equally plentiful supply. Sag Harbor Yacht Club has been really great to us. The staff are professional and helpful and even invited us to a BBQ our first night here. One of their racers showed up this afternoon at 4 to ask if any of us would like to crew for him. (No takers, but the thought was appreciated.) I did not see an EYC burgee among their collecion, and if I had one to spare, I certainly would have left one here. As it is, our burgee has been repaired by sail tape. It's about to lose the red. I fear it will look something like Lark's burgee soon.
