Something new

What's missing from this picture?



Need a hint?



Yes, it's true. In case you haven't heard, the Schooner Windfall is no longer here. She needed significant maintenance work, so Rob decided to let her go gracefully and replace her with a new schooner instead. Today, Caroline called to ask if we wanted to meet a few folks down at the dock to see Windfall II's arrival. Of course, we headed there immediately! We were quickly joined by several other Windfall fans.



Fiddler Dave kept an eye on the horizon through his telescope.



Here she comes!





Captain Rob seems thrilled with his new "girl".
