LOCATION: Blue Hill for the Atlantic Nationals 2023

VESSEL: “Hathor” – Ellis 36 

NARRATIVE: Excellent boat, some great weather early in the charter. We were able to get the whole family out (6 grandkids, four parents, and two grandparents) in great comfort. Each grandkid got to enjoy their first overnight on the boat and some epic stargazing. We enjoyed perfect conditions for watching the Atlantic Nationals in Blue Hill. The only analogy I could make to a golfer on the boat was the day was equivalent to playing Augusta, the conditions for sailing were that good. We then wandered from harbor to harbor for lobster rolls. Hathor’s condition, preparation, and maintenance were superb. I was in constant admiration of the boat.

INSIGHTS: The only chafe was forgetting to ask about the night setting for the plotter – User error. And I wish I had woken up earlier to get around to Brooklyn and Swan’s Island.
