Charleston to Newport
Easy and uneventful drive from Charleston to Newport with the boat. Perhaps a bit tense on the bridges and highways through New York, but not too bad.
Greasing the bearings every 500-800 miles seems like the trick. Along with trailer specific tires :).
Speedy arrival in Newport, standing up the rig with Pete Colby, Dirk Johnson & Ed Adams (Thank you!).
Frankie & Rockie were a good help getting the boom up on the boat - even in the rain, under duress. Kristen Ramsey, Doug Thompson - nice outdoor snack and cocktail. Great to be back in Newport!
Super fun to reconnect with Andrew McAulay - fellow Pleon Yacht Club alum (1987!). Watch out Pleon - we’re going to rope some of you into more sailing!
