Westport,
NY
On Thursday the 11th it was decided
that Dreamchaser and I would anchor
out that night. It was a bit windy
as we left Chipman Point Marina.
We had originally planned to anchor by the Crown Point Bridge, off Crown
Pt. Fort but it was too exposed to the North.
We went a little further north and anchored in
Cole Bay between Cole Island and Camp Dudley. The camp is a YMCA boy’s camp. Lots of whooping and hollering. The first time Greg set my anchor I dragged and there were a
lot of weeds. It was better the 2nd
time, but Greg set the anchor alarm just in case.
I was rocking ad rolling until dinner when the
east wind calmed. I don’t think
Greg and Kate got much sleep.
Friday Greg pulled my anchor around 10 AM (ugh!!
Lots more weeds!) and we set off on a short ride to Westport Marina. Very short ride – only 40 minutes! We stayed for 2 nights here. It’s a real small town – some cute
shops (according to Kate & Ginny!) and a market.
The fixed docks in the marina are under water
because the Lake level is so high!
Glad that Dreamchaser and I
are on floating docks!
