This past friday my wife and I put in at old Mystic village and went out to East Harbor on Fishers Island. It was a nice cruise for our 13 sport. The water in the Harbor was perfect and a nice place to anchor out. If anyone is interested in meeting out there this summer and maybe crusing over to stonington etc.. it would make for a nice day. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks

What's it cost to launch from the old mystic marina and how much parking is there?

It was free. We launched at the public launch which is the first road south of old mystic seaport. You then park for free in the public parking lot that is for old mystic seaport and walk the one block back to the boat launch. Worked out great for me.

Is that the state boat launch? Wondering if it would be crowded on a Saturday or Sunday.

I would still be interested in a whaler raft up, although my Revenge is a lil farther west....between the thimble islands and birbirie marine, branford CT IS TRUE WHALER COUNTRY....if this rendezvous ever happens, I think it would be cool. Cheers - J.

It does not seem like the kind of ramp rthat gets crouded. I think it is town property.

Cool. I think I'd like to check out the ride on my own before committing to meeting up for a trek. It sounds like a great place to go. I'm taking the kids the wife and the boat on a week long vaca at schroon lake first week of august so if it is doable I won't be able to do it until after that. I can't go all the way to Branford in the 13'.

Hello Folks- I am a newbie. I just purchased a 17 Montauk. I live in Southington and have taken the boat out in the CT River three times thus far. Keep me posted with any trips you may take or if you want to meet up. I would definitely be interested.
