This is Sail Rock, and it marks the entrance to the Lubec Narrows just off West Quoddy Head Lighthouse. Hang a left and you are headed to Lubec and Eastport. Assuming, that is, that you timed the tide perfectly and/or have enough grunt in your Cummins to brave the rushing riptides and whirlpools. No, the Captain wouldn't let me attempt a stop and go in Old Sow, but passing under the Campobello bridge was a rush.
LUBEC, MAINE
The water was really rushing. We followed the lobster boats through. Whistle-pissers will have to wait for the right tide. For The Ralphs, it is just a matter of burning some diesel!

EASTPORT, MAINE
Beth and Marshall were waiting for us at the dock. What a relief to get off this boat! Obligatory shots of "Tully"more dew:

I had my first hotdog here in the early 80's. Rosie's daughter now runs the show. I think she said they have been serving up dogs for 47 years right here on the Eastport dock!
