Century Club: Don Frick
We were supposed to go to Martha's Vineyard on our friends Jeanneau Velsco 37 on July 9th, but delayed a day to allow Hurricane Elsa pass. Saturday morning, we headed down the Sakonett River headed for Martha's Vineyard but as we approached the Rhode Island Sound, the sea were 6 feet plus so we turned around and went back to Sakoneet Marina. Sunday we motored over to the Kickamuit River where we anchored for lunch. We then motored to Bristol and toured the waterfront by boat finally ending up at the New England Boatyard for the evening. Monday we motored back to Sakonett Marina.
We motored (no wind) up to Worton Creek and rafted up for the night with Shibumi. Motored back the next day.
We went out for an afternoon sail and then anchored outside Rock Hall Harbor where we had a nice dinner and then watched the fireworks from the cockpit of Allure. After the fireworks, we motored back into the slip in the dark.
After completeing ASA118 on the previous two days, Myra got a chance to practice what she learned and to contrast the handling of the school boat, an Island Packet, and Allure.
