It wasn't a tough decision to sail to the beautiful harbor in Stonington. There is a fine seafood restaurant, Fisherman's Friend that is adjacent to the dinghy dock. Of course as we came around the southeast side of Deer Isle, the wind was from Stonington, but no matter. We ambled around the Stonington Archipelago to find better wind and encountered another small sailboat that was heading toward the north. As we neared Stonington,
we saw the powerful workboats that the lobstermen use. On into the harbor, we saw the handy town dock, so we dropped sails and tied up. Many smaller rowing and motor dinghies also use the dock, but there is always room for one more.
Jennifer and I gratefully walked ashore and made a beeline to the restaurant, where we got a table and then took advantage of the head. I don't really want to talk about the head on the boat, but it obeys the maxim "less is more." The meal was good, I had excellent haddock with a baked potato and beer, Jennifer had alfredo pasta, which we both liked.
