Silent Maid

Went down for a morning sail on Memorial Day. On the ride to Beaton’s I wondered when the Silent Maid would show up. I’ve been following John Brady’s Blog and expected her any day as she starts her Summer cruise this week.

I got to Beaton’s, walked down the dock and there she was; tied up on the T Dock, across from Sjogin.

…

Right there for my viewing pleasure. Almost as good as seeing her coming up the Bay under sail.

…

Acres (seemingly) of varnish. Damn near perfect. Nice Job John and crew.

Tacking out of the basin. The original Maid had a varnished hull in her early years.

Just checked John’s Blog and they are in New York harbor today, with a circumnavigation of the Statue of Liberty planned.
