day eighteen - Belfast


Sails up 6:25 and no wind.  Under power.  Low overcast.  7:00 some wind, motorsailing northwest.


8:35 see the red marker for Belfast Harbor.


And soon the forest of masts of boats in the mooring field.  


Tied up 9:30 Belfast with help from Kathy, the world's nice Harbor Master.  She can't help but smile.


And of course the delights of visiting an exotic port: laundry, shower, lunch (caesar salad with shrimp), a trip to the co-op for supplies and dinner (broiled haddock and a couple of beers).


It is a nice town and the folks on the waterfront are very friendly.


Then back to the boat to repack breakfasts and lunches for the second half of the cruise.
