Here is a photo of the sunset in Eastport, Maine the night before Ananda was hauled out for the winter.

This summer I will be cruising in the Bay of Fundy using St. Andrews as my base. I grew up in this town as a kid and I have many fond memories of playing on the shore watching the tides and boats come and go–and dreaming about sailing away to far off places.

St. Andrews is situated on the Passamaquoddy Bay which is a sheltered inlet off the Bay of Fundy. The US border and the State of Maine is close by. Ananda is currently stored on shore at a marina in Eastport, which is about an hour away from St. Andrews by water.

Part of my plan for the summer is to take a trip up the St. John River to Fredericton. This will involve traversing the Reversing Falls at the mouth of the river in Saint John. I hope to do this early in July. After that I will cruise along the New Brunswick and Nova Scotia shores of the Bay of Fundy. Lots of interesting places to visit and things to do.
