cw2go Posted September 11, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I am hoping one of you will have a little secret as to who sails New England in summer months? Weather is so iffy in Sept/Oct and we would like the do some excursions that will be far more enjoyable in a warmer/dryer climate. Fall foliage is such a gamble so not our priority. I have looked over the mass market lines and have not found any summer sailings. Looking for June-Aug Thanks in advance, Patty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailBadtheSinner Posted September 11, 2013 #2 Share Posted September 11, 2013 go to Find a Cruise on the CC site, here's how I filled it out the selection boxes: I got 6 hits. I'm sure there are more; try Google. SBtS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trophy_23 Posted September 11, 2013 #4 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I am sure there are summer sailings... Pretty sure the Veendam and Maasdam do this itinerary and Im sure there are others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arusha Posted September 11, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 11, 2013 ...we would like the do some excursions that will be far more enjoyable in a warmer/dryer climate. Summer in New England is warmer, but not necessarily drier if you are referring to humidity. We have many days of high humidity during the summer. Even today in mid-September, we have a heat advisory due to 90+ degree temps and high humidity. We get the heat/humidity from the midwest and from Florida. If you are referring to rainfall, Boston averages 3.4 inches in each of the following months: July, August, and September. http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/vacationplanner/vacationclimatology/monthly/USMA0046 Bar Harbor, Maine has the same average rainfall as Boston for July and August, but averages 4.5 inches in September. October rainfall trends higher for both Boston and Bar Harbor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurie Can't comment too much on the May weather, but the itinerary is great. We did one similar in 2009 on the Eurodam but southbound Quebec to Florida. It is high on my 'to do again' list!!
