Two full days enjoying Nantucket Harbor

Dear F and F,
We had a leisurely start to the day sitting in the harbor on our mooing ball.At about 10am the Harbor Marina boat stopped beside Lady Erica and asked if we could move to another mooring ball as a 70 ft boat was due in and they needed our spot.
So off we go again but this time one of the assistants came on board and gave me the 101 lesson in picking up the line with the floating stick.
Even he had trouble initially. But I was able to watch carefully and practice makes perfect so hopefully we will be in good shape next time. This time we are on H 6 which stands for  Hotel  6 in their lingo!
Had a further wander through the town on the uneven cobbled but quaint streets.Again lots of tourists and regular visitors about. These islands seem to specialize in homemade icecream and they are all good. We decided to indulge again so there goes the waistline! This evening we had dinner on board Linda and Rogers boat.Roger cooked some delicious steaks and we provided the salad and quinoa hot dish. .A lovely evening it was too , wth a great restaurant water view !
Next morning as I had checked out the local newspaper and spied a historical walk at 10.30am ,we decided to head into town via our dingy to learn some interesting facts about the island .
Our guide was very knowledgable although somewhat ponderous in his delivery of the facts .This was balanced by his dry sense of humor. Basically Nantucket was a successful Whaling town, which then burnt down during a fire caused in a hat shop, which spread rapidly throughout the town .Fortunately no fatalities.It  later became a tourist town, when whaling became no longer fashionable.
We zipped back in our dingies to our boats so we could watch what turned out to be the exciting finish of the British Open Golf tournament, with Zac Johnson winning after a three way playoff. During our historic walk I had got some good recommendations for dinner places and we went back to eat at The Boarding House. Had a delicious meal, again three of us had the lobster risotto .
