Sailing a Seawind 1600 to the Jewel of the Maine Coast to Escape a Hurricane | Harbors Unknown Ep 41
With Hurricane Henri barreling up the east coast we decided not to take any chances, nixed our plans to explore Casco Bay, and beelined it north, sailing our Seawind 1600 catamaran first to Tenants Harbor, then to a protected mooring in Vinalhaven. Thankfully we only saw rain and fog and once the weather broke we headed out to explore this area of Penobscot Bay, known as the jewel of the Maine coast, and boy did it live up to its reputation.
We had been looking forward to exploring Maine by boat for twenty years. And it was better than we had imagined. A constantly changing landscape, tides revealing secret beaches and hidden lagoons, majestic evergreen trees lining the shores. And we had it all to ourselves, a private oasis.
A huge thank you to Deborah and Jonathan for inviting us to stay on their mooring in Vinalhaven and for showing us such a good time!

If you're new here, Harbors Unknown is the story of two dreamers, Kristin and Fabio Potenti, and our French Bulldog dog Yoda. We sold our home at the beginning of the pandemic (May 27th, 2020) and moved aboard our @Seawind Catamarans boat, Wanderlust, in September. We're sailing her to Harbors Unknown, to explore the world’s vast cultures through food, a common thread amongst people everywhere. Connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how those dishes can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. We share our adventures as a sailing couple living on a boat and how it’s possible to live an #alternativelifestyle that provides freedom and fulfillment. We have set off on our voyage sailing around the world, after exploring the beautiful waters of South Florida, the Florida Keys, and the Bahamas. Subscribe now to join our #sailingadventure.
