Narrative:

Departed beverly airport en route ack. Since course was slightly easterly, I wanted to cruise at 3500 ft and inadvertently entered class B ring. Bos approach notified me that this occurred. I immediately descended to 2500 ft and the rest of the flight was uneventful. Bos controller said nothing more about the incursion.
