A Call For Turbine Photos From Pippy (Yes, Pippy)

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

If any of our contributors have Turbine photos they would like to submit, let Pippy (yes Pippy) know

Good morning to you!
Joey, the ladies of the Good Neighbor association in Annisquam are putting together the annual dinner event at the end of January. The decoration theme is, “Harness the wind”.
Do you have any turbine photos in your archives that we might be able to use?
I know you leave soon and if it is not a burden, we would appreciate whatever you can give us.
Thanks so very much and the best in the new year.

Northern Gannets 40 Miles NNE of Annisquam

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Joey – we got quite a show from a group of Northern Gannets yesterday about 40 miles NNE of Annisquam.  Pretty spectacular with their 6 ft wingspreads, zooming low right over us. 

Around the same time we had Monarch butterflies about.  The wind was W about 15-17 kt.

Tony and Maria Marolda From Annisquam Have Some Nice Things To Say

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

We’ve lived in Gloucester for over thirty years.  We just recently discovered GMG, recommended by a friend.  We really look forward to getting our GMG e mails and go through them in detail.   We certainly agree with your premise, that you love everything about Gloucester.  So do we.  It is an amazing place to live!

Annis Squam, 1817

Edmund March Blunt (1770–1862) published and printed the first book of sailing directions in the United States, the American Coast Pilot, in 1796. This Annis Squam chart is from the 9th edition of Coast Pilot and measures 9×5 inches – a tidy size for both large commercial and smaller sailing vessels. At the top in red are what I believe to be fish drying racks. Below Annis Squam, the chart shows the “White Sand Hills” of Coffin’s Beach. I’m excited to have this restored and superbly colored treasure in my gallery.
“The American Coast Pilot, containing the courses and distances between the principal harbours, capes and headlands, from Passamaquoddy through the gulph of Florida, with directions for sailing into the same, describing the soundings, bearings of the light-houses and beacons from the rocks, shoals, ledges, through the south and east channels, and the settings of the currents, with the latitudes of the principal harbours on the coast, together with a tide table, by Edmund M. Blunt; corrected and improved by the most experienced pilots in the United States.” – Edmund Blunt

Heather McCoy Takes Some Pictures of An Electric Torpedo Ray On Cambridge Beach In Annisquam

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Heather writes-

Hey Joey,

I found this on Cambridge Beach in Annisquam a few days ago.  I was told it was an electric torpedo ray, I had never heard of them before.  I was wondering if you had ever come across one while lobstering?

That’s a funky ass ray H!

I’m not a lobsterman, I’m a lobster dealer and no, I’ve never seen one like that before!
