July 29-30, 2009 ::: Bar Harbor, Maine

After clearing with the US officials off to lunch. Lobster, fish, shops, places to see; all before our first sunset in Bar Harbor.


Following sunset there is always a beautiful sunrise. And we were again off to see Bar Harbor.



SONATA remained at the dock while we toured.


The fog would roll in, and roll out of the harbor.


Fog or no fog, the tourists were given their boat rides. What a place!


While at the pier completing some electrical work, STAMPEDE came in alongside SONATA on the outboard pier. SONATA's #1 battery, an 8D, had an internal short when we planned to depart Charlottetown, PEI. The first place to obtain a new one from West Marine was in Bar Harbor. Calls were made before arrival and West Marine agreed to deliver the battery to the dock. The Bar Harbor Harbormaster provided a name . . . Steve Strout, a lobstermann and an electrician to help. Steve was of great assistance, and the battery was installed and working before we departed for Rockland.
