Hi F and F,
Time to move North again. We left Di Millos after a false start Literally at 10 am the starboard engine wouldn't start! So we got Chris owner of Di Millos and a technician down to see what we could do. After trying several things they got the engine going .Thought there could have been air in the system after all the work done on the engines. So we set off after fueling the boat out of the Portland Headland and headed North as opposed to the south on our previous two occasions from here.
A little treat on the way out ,we saw two seals in the harbor !
Flats seas were very welcome and we headed up the Sheepscott River which was wide and deep. We took a left turn into Goose Creek Passage and into the Robin Cove Marina , Georgetown. Truly lovely scenery, calm and restful.Still lots and lots of lobster pots to negotiate but worth it.
The two dock hands were there to greet us , very helpful and friendly. We were able to use a courtesy car ,so after booking for dinner at the Osprey Restaurant here at the Marina ,we headed off to Wiscasset a neighboring town considered the prettiest town in Maine. Car was pretty good , a Subaru Legacy !
Wandered the shops in this quaint town , passing the long queue at the famous Red Eats Restaurant which supposedly serves the worlds best lobster rolls .Lots of nice Art Galleries here.
Back to the Marina and then dinner at the Osprey Restaurant with its very good reputation.
Proved to be so and we had a great meal, the guys chose a salmon dish with a blueberry Jalapeño sauce. Roger and Graeme then decided to have the same sauce on vanilla icecream, but added a little Grand Marnier liquor to it. Tasted very good! So they called it Coup Nicole after our lovely young blond waitress. Walking back along the dock with the moon shining on the water and a calm atmosphere ,this place is not to be missed!
Over and Out
