Hi guys. Need some help here. Im travelling to Martha's Vineyard next month and im interested in doing a bit of sailing. I'v been to this website http://www.sailonishmael.com/ but i don't know how trustworthy the site is. If you have any reccommendations or suggestions please let me know. Thanx in advance!

Sailing in the Martha's Vineyard area in December? Surely, you can find a better location for that activity that time of the year! Do you have any idea of what the weather is like in that area in December?

I live on Nantucket, the next island over.

Sailing ends in mid-October and resumes in April.

There are fishing boats working still, lobstering and scalloping. Perhaps you will be able to go out with one of them, but you would have to arrange it locally. It is desperately hard, cold work on rough water at this time of year, but it would be an experience of a lifetime!

I suspect this newbie is actually advertising that website link . . .

Happens all the time -- register to ask about some website they 'just heard about' and then disappears.

But I agree -- asking about sailing in December???

I suspect you are right janisj, since this is the OP's first post. I'm certainly not impressed with his/her judgment in posting this information this time of the year! I can't picture too many vactioners planning to go to those islands this time of the year for any activity, especially sailing! Nice try, dummy!

Looks like a nice sail in season, though.

Even the website says their sailing season is over.
