Fun at the NE Rendezvous (Tuggers vol. 64)

Sally Seymour, Sally W 37VT42

Tuggers from around the northeast gathered in Camden, Maine July 24-26 for their annual rendezvous. Sixteen owners, one past owner, and one wannabe couple, totaling 35 enthusiasts, came together from North Carolina, Ohio, the Chesapeake, New England and Quebec.   Several were first timers at an LNVT event.

Four owners tied their LNVT's to the dock at Lyman-Morse at Wayfarer Marine.  Allan and Sally Seymour from Camden aboard Sally W 37VT42; Roger Lee and Martha Burke from Belfast, ME aboard Fram 37VT71; Andy and Alice Mutch from Southport Island, ME aboard Loon 37VT57; and new owners Ken and Heidi Maitland from Duxbury, MA aboard Victorious 37VT26.

Opening night kicked off with potluck fare including a delicious array of custom sweets. New and old acquaintances met to talk "tug."
