John Gardner Chapter: Scuttlebutt - September 2008

Hello everyone,

The Lighthouse Trip went very well, The boat was filled to capacity. The Project Oceanology people gave an interesting talk as we toured the structure. I would recommend the trip to anyone. I am including a photo of the lighthouse, and the link once again: Project O Lighthouse Cruise

New London Ledge Lighthouse

While our group was touring the Lighthouse three of our chapter members were competing in the Slocum River Regatta. Bill's Last Chance came in first in its class, beating its own record with Sean and Bill on the oars. John Maxson also took first place in his "Faering" Dory. Here is the link with the details: Slocum River Regatta

I would also like to plan a fall foliage row for either the 12th or the 19th of October. I have wanted to row the Narrow river in RI for quite awhile now, but I am open for any other suggestions: Narrow River Preservation Association

We have two dories in the shop ready for conversion to double/single configurations, making them "convertibles" !! Hopefully we can make some progress on them this Friday evening.

Hope to see you there.
Phil B
