“Settling into a comfortable routine of coffee at seven, breakfast at eight, lunch at noon, and dinner at six, we have lapsed into an indolent existence. In between these culinary delights we sit and relax on the deck watching the water rush by, embark on simple shore excursions, talk with newly made friends, read, and nap.”

This is a story of life on the lean; a five-day windjammer cruise at the end of September on the icy waters off the Maine Coast. There is not one technical thing about it. It is instead, a peek into what to expect if you plan on making the journey yourself.

Modern conveniences are gone. Adjustment is quick. And the rewards are great.

If you ever thought about taking a Windjammer Cruise, take a chance. Dive right in! The water is fine!
