Nantucket Winter Hibernation - Guess Where?
Once the safe harbor for whaling vessels in the
1800's and now the aqua parking lot for
international dinghies to mega yachts; siteseeing
harbor tours and fishing charters --- meander the
docks as the sun rises or sets --- embrace the
morning mist over the $$houseboats$$ or enjoy the
mauves, peaches and pinks of a magnificent sunset
casting its glory at day's end.
Dangle your feet overboard with picnic basket by
your side --- outfitted with an array of goodies
from the surrounding stores of provisions --- opt
for the simple fare of the adjacent grocery store or
the specialty shops (Gerry's favorite being the
'turkey terrific sandwich' "recalling your memories
of Thanksgiving leftovers" complete with stuffing
and cranberry sauce; and JeanE heading straight to
the fish store for a soft shell crab on bun or a
lobster roll and chips optional!)
Enjoy the conviviality of the "boat people" and
if you're lucky have a chat with one of the crew
members boasting about the life at sea traveling
port to port!
The basin has been the destination/point of
reference for so many yachting events including the
Memorial Day Sailing Race from Hyannis ; the Opera
Cup, the Swan Boating Reunion; the Browards and the
Burgers Reunions sailings.
Come Discover the Freedoms of Nantucket , live
the life of Privilege!

"One look. One smile. One touch. One embrace.
One kiss. One love. Two people. Two minds. Two
souls. Two destinies. One road. One journey. One
ending. Together."
Melissa Higgins
"A bell is not a bell until someone rings it,
a song is not a song until someone sings it.
Love wasn't put in the heart to stay, for love
isn't love 'til you give it away."
- Chanh Kha -
"Love means the warmth of the sun, the aroma
of a rose, the breeze of the sea, but as you can see
it never means the same for anyone. Love acquires
its true meaning by experiencing it for the first
time because only then can you define it."
- Nestor Gallardo -
"Love many things, for therein lies the true
strength, and whosoever loves much perfoms much, and
can accomplish much, and what is done in love is
done well."
Vincent Van Gogh
