They are giving you too much time off over there, Carter.

You know. . I can help you put a cam cleat on the side of your cello if you like. We can bed it just around the corner from your 'port side' F hole.

funny stuff.

Now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout, baby! I was expecting to see a toe on the tiller also.

BTW, she's a really beautiful rig, Henry. Thanks for the pics.

You City Island Sailors!

Post by Warren Kaplan »

My gawd Henry,

When I visit City Island from Long Island its hard to believe its part of the Bronx. But now I also see that its sailors are far out! Far out indeed!

Might that cello have gps installed just out of sight on the other side??

Tuxedo and Icy Tunes

Post by RMeigel »

To my eye, the tuxedo looked more out of place in Carter's photo than the cello!

A new Igloo Playmate cooler product caught my eye this weekend - it comes with a water resistant holder for an IPOD and built-in speakers. I have not heard the quality of the sound - but it sure seemed like a great thing for smaller boat owners.

See http://www.igloo-store.com/product_deta ... iglobasics

There is no need to do without cello music while sailing anymore!

Neil,

I was born in the Bronx....way back in 19 and 45!! I don't have a problem with it at all. City Island, with is heavy nautical flavor, just seems out of place there!

I was born in '48... at Westchester Square hospital.

It is somewhat of an amazing transition, from the Bronxy part of the Bronx to City Island.

Ask Carter about the "topless cellist" and have him chuck the tux.

Hope to see some of you folks in Rockland Maine in July.
