celebrate New Morning. Many people came from California, up from
further south on the eastern seaboard, and even as far as London.
While the rain poured down (canceling some flights and causing
delays for everyone) we celebrated at the house in Tenants Harbor on
Friday afternoon followed by dinner at the Dip Net in Pt. Cylde.
But on Saturday the weather was glorious! The lighting was
spectacular at the Lyman Morse dock in Tenants Harbor where Caitlin
did the honors and broke another bottle of champagne across New
Morning's bow. Everyone toured the boat and the comments and
compliments were very gracious! Then we moved to In Good Company in
Rockland where we had a great dinner and enough wine to cause more
than on person to dip into the aspirin locker on Sunday morning!
Sunday the weather was more spotty with sun in Tenants Harbor, but
thick fog just outside Southern Island. We did venture out in the
morning and again in the afternoon, but the fog, lobster buoys and
light air conspired to make both trips a challenge. None the less
everyone enjoyed getting away from the dock and getting a feel for New
Morning when underway.
That's a quick report, we'll post pictures and more later this week.
