Beige sailing yachts dominated the waterfront once again this week, as the 14th Biennial Maine Island Packet Rendezvous, hosted by Mary and Norm Pierce of Pierce Yacht Company, convened at Captain Fish’s Waterfront Inn.
Twenty-five Island Packet yachts and their owners from all over the East Coast sailed into the harbor to participate in seminars on cruising the Maine Coast, boat maintenance and operation, modern communication at sea, and a very special presentation by Bill Bolin, of Island Packet Yachts, Largo, Florida, on the new international and CE standards of stability for sailing yachts.
The three-day event included a buffet breakfast and evening banquet at the Boothbay Harbor Inn and concluded with a Sunday morning breakfast at the Dockside Grill at Captain Fish’s Waterfront Inn.
A good time was had by all, with many staying on for shopping and tours of the region.
