Hurricane Earl is now just a memory and not much of a memory... we experienced very little rain and hardly any wind... so we left Warwick this morning and returned to Block Island... departing at 1015 hours.

Just before arriving to 1BI marker on the north end of Block Island we heard a hail on the VHF from a small boat that had run out of fuel... we were within visual range of them so we diverted our course to assist them. It was a 23' Grady White and we tossed them a line and towed them into New Harbor(Great Salt Pond) and dropped them at the Paynes fuel dock.

We returned to our previous anchorage location just off of Dingy Beach at N41°11.203, W071°34.398 and were securely on the hook at 1615 hours.

The harbor is like a ghost town... Hurricane Earl really killed the boating for Labor Day weekend... :(
