The steam yacht Quiet Presence is again available and for an advantageous price to the right potential owner. The plan to run her as a tourist boat in Bar Harbor did not work out, but that was not the fault of the boat. Interested parties should email us.

We are again taking Barbara south, for the fifth year in a row. For an account of the first stage of the trip click here (December 4, 2011).

For the second stage (New Haven to Baltimore) click here (December 28, 2011).

For the third stage (Baltimore to Norfolk and Bermuda) click here (January 15, 2012).

For the fourth stage (Bermuda to the BVI) click here (February 27, 2012).

For the fifth stage (The BVI to Boqueron, PR) click here (April 15, 2012).

There are links on those pages to see our track in Google Earth.
