Sad Day on the Chesapeake Bay

Post by Fastjeff »

Well, our beloved Mystic is all cleaned out of our personal stuff and ready to be trucked to her new owner. She served us well for 12 years, never stranding us anywhere and giving countless people a nice boat ride (including three grand kids who learned--and use--all the appropriate nautical terms), Guests included writer Richard Greenwood (the old "Northeaster" and other local publications), and my late and great buddy who was delighted by that "16 cylinder power".

Oh well...

Thanks! Actually looking forward to "small boating" again. We towed our 19 foot Bayliner all over the place with the RV, then explored places we couldn't afford to go in the Big M with the gas prices being what they are (though they're coming down--Exxon must have heard we sold our boat...)
