This seemed like a good image to end the week on with rain in the forecast and with the crisp Fall air signaling the coming close of boating season. As an offshore storm sent crashing waves into Marblehead beaches and Castle Rock, the harbor offered some protection for boats moored within its borders. However, this one wooden sailboat perched near the mouth of the harbor was definitely fighting the current as whitecaps formed clear across the harbor.
I’m not sure who owns this boat or even what class or type it might be but its clean lines and beautiful wooden finish as well as its location neat the mouth of our harbor has made it a favorite element in quite a few images.
