Beetle Cat & Schooner, Eggemoggin Reach

Okay, it's November. Thirty knots of wind and it's only 9:30am. Cold wind, too. Scout was hauled six weeks ago and she won't be in again until late May. But I'm thinking about sailing all the time, and Eggemoggin Reach. Here are a couple of classic downeast Maine wooden vessels, from different ends of the nautical spectrum, with a powerboat in between: a Beetle Cat on a mooring at Center Harbor, and in the b.g. a schooner--I believe Heritage, out of Rockland--Captain Doug Lee--making her way up the Reach.
