I’m planning to visit New England waters (Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, Elizabeth Islands, etc.). I’m gathering good info from cruising guides and few websites, but it would be great if I can get some tips from local guys, I know we have several from that neck of the woods.
I’ll be approaching the Vineyard Sound from the Rhode Island Sound with intention to go to MV, followed by Nantucket and then, Elizabeth Islands and Cuttyhunk on return back southbound. Is there anything wrong with such order of ports (navigation wise)? Do you guys suggest do Nantucket->MV-> Elizabeth Islands and Cuttyhunk instead?
We’re big fans of mooring balls and planning to use them in most of the destinations. Should I be concern with mooring at any of the destinations? Any reason I should be booking marina’s instead?
As always your suggestions are appreciated.
