Arey’s Pond is still full of Catboats ready to go out for that fall sail. It’s the perfect time of year for a sail when the weather is cool and crisp and the winds are blowing!
The 33rd Annual Cat Gathering put on by Arey’s Pond Boat Yard was held last weekend. There were a lot of excited sailors racing on the beautiful and breezy day. (Click on blog link for other photos.)

It is a just-for-fun regatta for catboats and classic sailboats. It starts in Little Pleasant Bay, goes through The Narrows, and into Pleasant Bay. Every year nearly 100 boats come together for this parade of sail.
We watched the start of each race at Pahwah Point and then headed over to Pleasant Bay.
You could see how close the races were as they rounded the buoys.
What a gorgeous day and a fun time had by all!
The 14 foot Catboat National Championship Races were held yesterday by Arey’s Pond Boat Yard. It was lucky that they were held yesterday before the winds from Hurricane Erin arrive today. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

We watched from Pahwah Pont. There is always something fun to see on Cape Cod.
There are still a lot of boats in the water at Arey’s Pond Boat Yard in Orleans. Many sailors took advantage of the gorgeous, warm weather that we had last week and got out on the water for another sail before the cold weather finally arrives. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
I edited this photo two different ways… I couldn’t decide which one I liked better. What do you think?
