Stuffing My Face on the Stephen Taber

This is a shot of the galley on the Stephen Taber. That huge stack of fresh corn went very nicely with our lobster that evening. I kept myself under control and only ate two lobsters. Chris had two lobsters and a couple claws.

We downed the lobster with lots of wine and then sat around on the deck of the sailboat rubbing our engorged bellies. Sexy huh? Who cares when you get to eat two lobsters. I don't even care that lobsters are related to roaches. They cannibalize each other like roaches too. (Is that too much information?)

Sailing the Maine Coast

This picture of the Maine coast was taken from aboard a historic schooner called the Stephen Taber. The Maine coast is filled with beautiful old wooden boats, but none has been sailing as long as the Taber.

There were 29 of us on board, 22 passengers and 7 crew. Most of the day we spent cruising by islands covered with impossibly green trees and impossibly large houses.

Other passenger boats were out there. So were private pleasure boats and working lobster boats. I can't recall hearing anything so crass as a motorboat and I definitely didn't see any water skiing. This is a place for just chillin.
