Title: Herreshoffs at the Newport Boat Show September 16-19th
Post by: Adam Langerman on September 10, 2010, 02:34:11 PM

Come see the new Alerion 26, ALERA and the Newport 29, IOLANTHE at the show.   

I think Alec Brainard will also have his latest 15 on display.

Should be a great weekend!

Gimme a break ...I just got home  :)

I'll empty out my camera in the AM and see what I have.  I have a feeling there may be a pic of A.L. in his native habitat  ;)

I saw CANGARDA and SPARTAN in Mystic this AM.  Both are real treats.

I can't believe how many folks asked me about the Registry - kind of neat, Met Carol Cronin who wrote a bunch of young adult books (she was in tent C) and owns thje Marlin "Matsya". I ran out of cash so I couldn't buy her books! I will rectify that tomorow via web....

As for Mr. Adam L. he tried to sell me a Newport 29, but I left my checkbook home  :o

The wife actually liked the Alerion better!  ;)

Steve, that is not just an LFH Araminta that you photographed at Mystic, but that is THE Araminta! This is the original boat and all others came later. And what a great photo that is! Thanks!

I didn't know that.  She is a beautiful boat for sure.
