We arrived in Castine at low tide - to a very friendly dockmaster and an easy-going attitude at
the dock. We washed the salt off the decks and filled the water tanks. The dockmaster was from Maryland - his parents had moved out of the Silver Spring area to Maine because they thought the area was becoming unsafe for their kids!

The dockmaster was from Maryland - his parents had moved out of the Silver Spring area to Maine because they thought the area was becoming unsafe for their kids!There are some old buildings and a lot of history - Rev. War and War of 1812. Paul Revere was even in Castine!
Rincewind's mast was a fitting background for the open-air dining at the wharf. There was even special handicapped parking for her!
Castine is the home of the Maine Maritime Institute and their training boat was at dock - sort of towered over Rincewind and Twoflower!
We purchased 15 six-packs of beer since the store was so close to the docks - the newest find is Geary's Summer Ale. While shopping, we met three people with Maryland connections. Waving goodbye to the beautiful town of Castine and set sail for Sabbathday harbor on Islesford Island.
