What’s new?
Newsletter, that’s what.
In this one, we look back over last year’s season - and all the way back to the 1700s, to the start of Rockland.
It’s a neat story to check out.
From Northern Lights to whale sightings, it was quite a season.
Looking forward, we list some of our special cruises - they feature guest chefs and great musicians.
There’s even a Captain’s Choice trip where Noah spends the week indulging in all his favorite spots and enjoying all his favorite foods. And he knows some great ones!

T’was the night before christmas and down at the Taber,
Noah was making a wish, asking Santa for a favor.
A storm was brewing, waves had begun waving.
Noah was worried that the Taber might need saving.
When, out on the pier, there arose such a clatter,
Was it the storm getting going, mad like a hatter?
Nope, it was Santa arriving due to the wish that was made.
“Ahoy there Noah, now don’t be afraid.”
“I’ve got an idea, a thought I did think,
of how to keep the storm from making your boat sink.”
“It’s the same magic I use every year, on this very night.
that shrinks me from great big, to small and quite slight.”
“I’ll sprinkle my magic dust on your boat right fast
and quick as a wink, it’ll fit in a glass.
“Well, thank you Santa, that’d be quite a treat.
While you’re at it, could you shrink the whole fleet?”
“These boats are all friend’ boats, they’re not just neighbors.
It’s the law of the sea, sailors help sailors.”
“Then shrink them all I will gladly, down to a nub.
They’ll all fit easily into a tub.”
With his hands on hips and a twinkle is his eye,
“poof” went the boats to toymaker size.
Santa gave a wink, and jumped in his sleigh,
He yanked the reigns and was off on his way.
Then Noah heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,
“Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night.”
Later at home, his wife Jane walked in and let out a laugh,
there surrounded by the fleet, sat Noah in the bath.

Captain Ken Barnes passed away last weekend.
Quietly, like a ship in the night.
Father, Friend, Fan -
Husband, Grandfather, Captain,
Compass, Anchor, Legend.
He was much to many.
He was All to us.
We will miss him. We will keep him with us always -
and miss him all the more.
Yes, another story. Just one more.
Share your memories of Ken.
When we’re more settled, we’ll enjoy them. It’ll be nice.

We finally found out why you say “cheese” when you smile for a picture. There are three reasons actually. .#cheeseislife #foodietravel #thisiswindjamming .🎥 @qdonleavy
