2014 NP Yacht Owners Rendezvous

NP Yachts Rendezvous

 

The 2014 NP Yacht Owners Rendezvous at Telegraph Harbour Marina last week was a huge success, attended by 24 boats and 55 people.  Everyone enjoyed the great food, music and Mexican theme.  A good time was had by all and the weather cooperated despite a few downpours on the last day.  Educational and round-table sessions for both women and men were well attended.  Many thanks to Malcolm Ellison of Lightship Mobile Marine for his entertaining and informative sessions, stories and laughs.  

Sponsorship by Trevor Brice of NP Yachts, Malcolm Ellison of Lightship Mobile Marine, Dolphin Insurance and Philbrooks Boatyard and many other businesses was very much appreciated.  We will be providing you with more business throughout the coming year and are already looking forward to the event next year in Anacortes.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
