Attached preliminary commo on NA delivery/return/cruise ... looking for additional input.This is looking like a 10 day program figuring getting into MH on Wed and returning on Mon.
night running, if at all, in upper BB mostly under power depending on crew.
I would be ok going through at night depending on the weather with a straight shot to Marblehead.
Don't think cuttyhunk is far enough up BB for a stop.

Vic - you read it correct. I'd be at Buzzards Bay end around 11am to catch the good push through the 21 miles in the canal. Figure with 3 kts current you make about 8 kts average.

Am I reading it right that the window east at the canal is ~10/11 am/pm Aug. 3?
The last delivery I did through the canal was over 10 years ago was at night -- out of Boston around 10 am ending up at Dutch H around 4 am.
Ran out of fuel and had to sail up to the dock.
