Wow! I am so grateful and impressed that you all responded so quickly and generously with information. Thank you! Specifically, our house is on Winter Harbor. Don't know anything about it, so don't know if that is a good or a bad thing and how that might make motoring to one of the towns more or less challenging. Feedback? Also, in terms of some of the 5 foot waves you describe, sounds like that would be challenging for our little 18 foot skiff. Do you agree? I love the bumps but some of the kiddos might freak out. lol Looking at a map, it looked as if motoring to Weirs beach might be too much for our size boat. I am going to sit with my husband and we will do all the things you folks have recommended. We will have a much better time being prepared, and of course don't want to create any problems for other boaters there. I also read the thread about boating with dogs, very helpful. We will be bringing our Golden. By the way, we live on the North Shore of Boston and launch our boat from Perkins Marina in Essex. Take it through the salt marshes and out into the ocean, but not far out! Mostly motor around the islands. It's great to check out if you are ever in the area. Thanks again- you're a great group.
