Good Harbor Beach and Rocky Neck Artist Colony

After getting to bed at 2:30 am we started our day with a late (10:30 am) breakfast at home. And what a home it is!
As we started our walk our first experience, of course, were Fisherman. Only in Gloucester would the high school cheer go like this...

"We are the fisherman,
the mighty, mighty, fisherman,
everywhere we go,
everyone wants to know,
who are they,
they are the fisherman,
the mighty, mighty fisherman"

After a nice walk we headed home for lunch and to catch the World Cup Final. Congratulations to Spain, their first ever World Cup Championship!

We then went to Rocky Neck.


This is my kind of boat (below), I think you can tell by it's name "Hit & Run"

The Gloucester Marine Railways Corp. is The Oldest Working Shipyard in America.

This is "fearless" Phyllis A, built in Kennebunkport in 1925.  It's lenght is 63', beam 14' and draft 7'6" the gross weight is 40 tons and it was powered by a Detroit Diesl with a speed of 8 knots. the fish hold capacity is 25,000 lbs.


SUPER BOAT!
