Thanks again guys, I feel blessed to enjoy days like that. Used to be wide open from start to finish but now just idling around works just as well (with the occasional blast to clear out the cobwebs) and is usually much cheaper.
Boston Harbor is beautiful. There is a lot to do and the water is probably cleaner now than it has been in years. It does get rough in certain areas especially with all the large boat traffic. If anyone plans to come up let me know and we'll hook up.

Default Looks like a great day !

Nice pics.Fobes !
It's a great place to bring the kids and let'em explore.Yup,docking can be tricky in there.

Scott,
It's a great place to boat. You really need to follow the channels . It can get confusing with channels crossing each other sometimes. Pulling into Boston is awesome tho.
I need to make it up the Charles River sometime. I usually boat Narraganset Bay also and make Fall trips up there.

Yes you can, right up the harbor, over to Charlestown, by the Aquarium, the North End etc. You can head over to the locks too and go up the Charles river. Bill
