We had an excellent get together last night for our Nantucket Rendezvous with the following boats in attendance:
s/v Watercolors – Charlie – Outbound 44
s/v Por Dos – Mark, Marta, Alec and Roan – Catana 48 (OCC)
s/v Brizo – Pat and Stuart – Discovery 55 (OCC)
s/v Wyschbone – Cindy and Jeff – Oyster 53 (OCC in cognito)

It’s clear I have to do something about my promotional skills – not a one of the OCC boats was aware of the Rendezvous ahead of time – but we managed to get them all together with a little dingy work over the past couple of days – inviting Brizo and Por Dos… We were not aware that Wyschbone was an OCC boat – because they were flying incognito – and despite the bold talk last night, I still don’t see a flying fish atop their mast as promised!!! Fortunately, Brizo was in the know and invited them along – great company…

Today’s event is a visit to the Nantucket Distillery – hopefully we’ll see some of them there…
