I can safely say I’ve now been front row for one of the world’s most amazing sunsets.
It’s only a short sail (10 miles) from Rockland to Pulpit Harbor in North Haven. We opted to anchor just outside the mooring field with the popular kids (that monster sailing yacht, First Light, was a neighbor at the docks while in Portland), while Lawrence and friend Jobert tucked into Minister’s Cove just around the bend.
After cocktails and cheese onboard Lawrence’s boat, we headed back to make dinner. Who else can claim to making chicken barley soup from scratch and dancing in the cockpit as the sun goes down to views like this??? I’m keeping track of things I like making on board, and will be posting recipes at some point as well. 
Can hardly wait for the recipes. When I make one it won’t be to the same sunset view but I’ll likely be dancing to some tunes in the kitchen! Thanks for sharing what it is like to cruise the coast of Maine
