Default Great Day On The Water!!

Had the opportunity this past Sunday to take a long slow cruise with some good friends in this recently refurbished classic wooden boat. It's a 1958 26' "Sakonnet", all wooden hull.

We ended up in Alton Bay for lunch at Shibley's...It was a great day to be out as the water was calm, the trees still had some color and the food and service was great as usual at Shibley's!

I still have one boat left in the water and will probably pull that next weekend and call it a year...

Hope everyone has a good winter wherever that may be...

Dan

Yeah we saw "Spray" spring of last year in Gilmanton as a work in progress. Fabulous restoration. We had an at dock tour of the finished boat but missed out on a promised ride.

I saw that tied up when I docked for a stop at Shibley's on Sunday. Cool boat! I was in center console with a Yamaha outboard. Can't recall the brand of the boat.
