Very picturesque.Problem with some of the Maine coastal destinations is tourist crowds - especially summer weekends. (Ever try Boothbay on a warm Sunday afternoon in July?)  The whole Route 1 from Portland to Machias can be a slog at the best of times with all the small towns and reduced speed limits.  Far worse with the traffic from tourism - takes all day to do 200 miles!  I used to take it from time-to-time but don't anymore unless I have a planned destination along the way. Even then, I'll usually avoid the worst of it with the #9 or Rte. 202.</blockquote>
