We've had a couple of early starts to maximize favourable tidal currents and today we have passed through the Cape Cod Canal at a speedy 10 knots with current pushing us.
50 nautical miles. All motoring
When we got to Cuttyhunk, I dove under the boat to check the prop and the little rotating wheel that helps the boat speed meter turn. It had crusted over a bit from some growth. After a few brushes and spins, it was good as gold!
We went ashore on Cuttyhunk to do some hiking. We found a cute little shop and bought ourselves a little snack (muffins and a Pepsi).
A very quaint little island, Cuttyhunk has a land area of 580 acres and a population of 52 people!
Back on the boat, the kids did lots of Lego.

It was a sunny and perfect summer's day.
Oh, and we spotted a dolphin too!
