Drb,

I sailed out of East Boston for a year in the late 90's and always enjoyed my time outside of Boston Harbor. Many trips to Salem, Beverly, even a night at Misery island (apply named). I always found Boston a place to escape from, as the big ship traffic was troublesome and added to converging tides, current, and chop.

I did shot out to P-town early and late in the same season, and found it pleasant enough. The early season was foggy and desolate and the late was crowded, but fun.

Concluding, I would think Hingham would be a nice alternative to Boston, and P-Town would be worth the adventure given the prevailing winds in the area. Got a cruising spinnaker for the ride back?
