Memorial Weekend in Cuttyhunk

Free Energy just departed Cuttyhunk after spending Memorial Day weekend there. Free Energy is now heading north in Buzzard Bay towards Onset as she leisurely makes her way back to Boston.

Cuttyhunk is a small town on the southern most of the Elizabethan Islands with a permanent population of just over 100, and is my favorite places to visit in Buzzards Bay. The island doesn’t feel over built up like so much of Cape Cod these days. There are 2 road intersections on the entire island and plenty of undeveloped land.

Weather was mostly cool (50s) and cloudy over the weekend, but the morning tended to be sunny so I walked a few miles each morning Free Energy was there. There is a beautiful lookout at the highest point on the island that’s only about 2 miles from where Free Energy was moored. The photo above is from that lookout, and if you’re eagle eyed you can see Free Energy in the mooring field.

I’m looking forward in bringing Free Energy back to later this summer when it’s a bit warmer and I can enjoy swimming the in the ocean.
