SEAL of APPROVAL

Many of the gray haired male residents of Nantucket will tell you about days gone by when they would kill harbor seals and get a $5 bounty which was quite a lot of money back in the day. They ate their weight in fish every day and this interfered with the fishing industry. These animals are protected now. You can find them out at Great Point lying around and begging for food. They weigh several hundred pounds and have sharp teeth so don't fall for their BS. They can catch their own fish.

It is a long trek or a good JEEP trip out to their place. You have to let most of the air out of you tires and go slowly. Don't go too late in the day as if you get stuck and have to spend the night, the mosquitoes will suck your circulatory system drier than a Twilight movie.
