Sometimes the month of August gifts us with the perfect weekend weather of low humidity and moderate temperatures. A week ago we had such a weekend. This sailboat was taken at Hull Gut on Saturday of that perfect weekend. The sun created shimmering dances of light on the water, the sky was a clear stunning blue and there was a light breeze. There were many sailboats, motorboats and fishing boats that passed through the Gut that day.
Hull Gut is in the town of Hull which is located on a peninsula at the southern edge of Boston Harbor in Massachusetts. Hull Gut is a narrow channel about a half a mile wide and thirty-five feet deep. Occasionally, oil tankers and freighters can be viewed passing through the Gut at high tide to reach industries on the South Shore.
