15 July 2009 - Jamestown, RI

We arrived at Dutch Island Harbor by Jamestown, RI in the West Passage to Narragansett Bay about 1100 PM in the evening after a long run up Long Island Sound and Block Island Sound.

When we got up in there was a small schooner and a Coast Guard vessel in the harbor with us. We had just seen the outlines of the boats when we arrived in the dark.

Here is the Newport Bridge

We made our annual trek across the Bay on a water taxi to visit Newport.
