Norstar made her annual pilgrimage to beautiful Bald Head Island. Traveling with us this trip on another boat "The Perks" was Captain John Perks, Mary Wilkinson, And Joe & Maryland Furman. Light winds on the nose required use of engine for the entire 26 mile trip on the outside. We spent 4 days on the Island relaxing on East Beach and enjoying the amenities of the Shoals Club. Evening meals and cocktails were served up aboard the spacious cockpit of "The Perks" Good friends and great weather made for a special trip this year.

The Other Women
We took "No Regrets" our live aboard motor yacht out for a little cruise last week with some friends. We purchased her a little over a year ago and moved aboard. We sold our "land home" last July and have not looked back! The live aboard life style has suited us well and we have come full circle as we lived aboard a vintage 1954 Matthews motor yacht when we were first married over 34 years ago!

Family Time Sail
Beautiful day for a sail with our Son, Chris and my sister, Jane. Light 8-12 knots of breeze made for a pleasant day on the water.
Teak Week Update
Finally have 3 coats of base varnish on the cap rail. Stripping old finish was a tedious and slow process. Should be good to go now with additional coats applied as needed. Would like to have 10 coats on by Fall.

Teak Week
Time again to start stripping old varnish finish from teak and re-finish. Our preferred method is heat gun and back scraper. A tedious and time consuming process but the only way to achieve lasting results.
