A few snapshots from the Boatel, on the rainy morning of Sunday 8/14. Everyone was soggy, boats were sinking. Eventually thing stabilized and the sodden crew bundled in blankets and went to mess down the road. 

At the upper left is a mid-60s Chris Craft cruiser, which was wooded and fiberglassed at some point in its life; pretty sure that boat was never sold in a natural finish. Connie sold it to Swimming Cities, so it will probably become the beating heart of a junk raft somewhere. A fine end for a boat that has had such a long, unlikely life in New York waters. Its almost a natural evolution.
