Location and contact.

Great little pub situated by the river thames in greenwich with fab views. I was greeted with such a warm welcome on new years day which I really appreciated as I was alone and I managed to have a table next to window before the... next reserved guests arrived. I ordered the big fish and chips which was great value,plentiful and delicious 😋 I went to the bar and bought a large gin and tonic recommended by the server..which was parma violet and garnished with strawberries..tasted fab! I had a relaxing hour or so with engagement from the team which was lovely..I was made to feel really special and it really made my new year so a big thank you to Justina and Rod! Happy New Year's guys I'll see you soon 😊 More

Thanks you so much for your kind words. We enjoyed looking after you. I will pass your lovely comments on to Justyna, Rod and the rest of our hard working team who will appreciate them very much. We look forward to welcoming you back to... More

Nice pub, good food and lovely views. Our visit was a Sunday afternoon and the staff were really friendly. We ordered drinks and food (loaded nachos with pulled pork) and even though we had to send the food back initially as the pork was not... thoroughly heated, the staff could not have been more accommodating and apologetic. Toilets were clean and I was even able to watch a few overs of the test match (must to my wife’s dislike!) Reasonably priced, Greene King IPA on tap and a lovely environment. My only observation was that the ceiling could use a bit of TLC. Otherwise, great experience and would definitely revisit. I have attached a couple of images from our indoor riverside seat. Can’t beat London as a backdrop! More

Thank you so much for the review, we really appreciated your feedback and were so happy we could rectify our small mistake to your satisfaction. Unfortunately we are at the mercy of external contractors to fix the ceiling after a serious flood three weeks ago.... More

Me and a friend went on a bar crawl in greenwhich stumbled across the yatch , what a lovely pub/bar , nice vibes , great views. The staff are very friendly and chatty , decided to order food after a couple drinks , would 100%... recommend the chicken platter , best wings I’ve had and I’m not a wing man. Was served by a young lady Sara who was very friendly and accommodating , easy to talk to and seemed like a genuine lovey person 👍 More

Hiya Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such lovely comments, which I will pass on to Sara. We're so glad you enjoyed you food and will also let the kitchen team know how much you liked the wings. Now you know... More

I went here to celebrate my graduation. First problem; they didn't have my booking written down so they had no recollection of the booking and no time to plan for it as we were a party of 10 including a dog. I had the booking... confirmed via email so I know for sure that I booked it and it was the right time and day. The second problem, they told us already it was a wait for food but they only said half an hour. This was not true and it took almost two hours for our food to get to us. Some people ordered soup to start which turned up stone cold. The wait was so long that some of our guests almost left because they were starving. When the food finally showed up, they served it all apart from my friends fish and chips. She received this when everyone was done with their meal. My dad asked for pie and mash and instead got pie and chips and was told he would get a complimentary side of mash as they got his order wrong. This did not appear, in fact, he didn't even get a knife until halfway through his meal. Its such a shame as it has a lovely view but the fact they had not received my booking, wait time for food was too long, it was cold food and slow service really let it down. I'll have to think twice before returning again. More

Thank you for review Louise. I would like to apologise again, as I did in person yesterday, for the less than satisfactory experience you had. As you will see from previous reviews the vast majority of our guests enjoy their visits with us and we... More

Just dreadful! The food was awful. Cold! The roast beef was inedible, full of gristle and fat. The chicken was dry and overcooked although the dog ate it. The Yorkshire pudding was so burnt, black and rock hard. The two bar staff were run off... their feet so didn’t have the time to do anything about the food. No blame attributed to the bar staff after all there was only two serving but this meant that the service was terribly slow too. We complained to the floor manager he was disinterested too. I won’t be eating in the Yacht again and definitely recommend anyone thinking of eating there to spend their money elsewhere. More

My sincerest apologies for the less that satisfactory experience you had here at The Yacht. Unfortunately, we were incredibly under staffed due to two members of the kitchen and bar team members calling in sick on the day of your visit. We did try our... More

Called in with friends to “The Yacht” where in times past we had enjoyed good food and service. There was one barman who was also a waiter, an impossible task to fulfill. We waited an hour and a quarter for the underwhelming food to turn... up. A great disappointment both to us and our foreign guests. The barman himself was pleasant enough given the stressful circumstances but explained they didn’t expect so many people in the period between Christmas and New Year. If Greene King can’t organise things better (the Yacht occupies a prime position on the River Thames) it had better close down. More

Thanks for getting in touch. We are sorry to hear that you did not have a great experience here at The Yacht. You are right, we did have a few staffing issues between Xmas and New Year!! We do hope you do come back soon... More

A group of 17 for the festive menu. Booking accepted. Asked to complete detailed pre order. Asked for every diners email & name ( not given). Took aver an hour to pre-order. Gain was to be food ready. Greeted by manager. Polite & welcoming. Starters... arrived after a while. One later than rest. Then main courses came in batches. By the arrival of the last the first person was finished. Reason? Our kitchen is not big enough for a group this size. Why take the order. The pre-ordered steak was to be medium rare. It arrived well done. The festive pie was deemed inedible. The mush wellingtons were over baked, hard and old as were some roast potatoes. Brussels were mush. By this time we had been at the ‘pre oder so we can be ready for you’ pub 2 hours. Some of our group had to leave before deserts arrived & we agreed not to take the risk of another lengthy wait for coffees. We complained & were offered free Prosecco which we declined in favour of ££ reduction. The manager did not come to see us. There were not enough staff for the volume of customers. They were nevertheless polite & willing. It was sad to make them loose their service £ due to shockingly poor cooking in what seemed like inadequate kitchen facilities. How much our poor experience is a feature of Greene King or the Yacht I do not know. Greene King wanted our data (inappropriately) and we wanted a decent dinner. Never again for any of us. Our advice is limit bookings to small groups & get a new cook. More

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lengthy review, however I am quite surprised as I was under the impression the issues you had on the day of your party were dealt with before you left, after a lot of conversation and... More

Three of us came into The Yacht at around 7:00 pm for a drink and a meal. I live locally and have been here infrequently over the years. But it seemed like a good bet for visiting friends with good views and not too pricey... food. I had a chicken burger, out guest had roast chicken and my wife had sausage and mash. My burger was fine, the roast chicken was ok. But the sausage and mash, a simple enough meal, was inedible. I’m aware that budget restaurants don’t cook sausages the way we would at home. A deep fat fryer can save a long wait and can be fine. But I suspect these sausages were cooked like that at lunch time, then sat under a warning light for the rest of the day. Or perhaps worse, deep fried at lunch and the reheated the same way hours later. I can’t be sure. However, the resulting disgrace was three sausages with ends devoid of moisture, spongey yet unchewable and lacking of any flavour. These reminded me of the worst school dinners or the something from the illegal hotdog stands you used to find in London in years gone by. I’ve had bad meals before when you take a mouthful and are upset at the poor quality, but you at least swallow the disappointment. These sausages had to be spat out in disgust. The rest of the meal was poor quality. Old mash, cabbage that had been reduced to salty filth. My onion rings may have contained trace elements of onion, but nasty and greasy. I didn’t want to make a big fuss but I was determined to get a refund on my wife’s meal. At the bar I explained that I wanted a refund for the inedible meal. The person at the bar feigned surprise that the sausages were so bad. But refunded the money without argument. There was an apology. But no further attempt to placate me. Obviously I wasn’t interested in more food from that kitchen. But an offer of dessert or a drink by way of apology would have been appreciated although still refused. However there was nothing but the refund offered before drifting off and avoiding eye contact. I did manage to save two other patrons that were at the bar ordering sausage and mash from repeating my folly. Which made me feel a little better. If I can save others from repeating my mistake then my work here is done. More

Thank you David for your very thorough feedback. I am so very pleased you enjoyed your burger and roast chicken. I'm not quite sure how someone with such a discerning palate as yourself cooks sausages at home but grilling them from fresh, as we do... More

Invited in the pub at the time it was empty and then after we bought a couple of drinks each, then into are second drink we were told we had 15 mins to leave. The atmosphere had changed even though we were more than happy... to continue buying drinks. They didn't want to find any other table for us. Obviously are money wasn't any good anymore. If they had been honest and told us from the beginning we had an hour then i would be okay with that and fine else where plenty of pubs to choose from. More

Hi U5045xymichaelg, thank you for taking the time to let us know about your recent experience. We are disappointed to hear that you are not satisfied with your visit. All of our bookings and walk ins are allocated a one and half hour time slot,... More

We decided to try the Yacht after a visit to its imposing neighbour 'The Trafalgar' and were left feeling a bit confused that pubs are supposed to be doing all they can to welcome people back as they rebuild their trade post Covid. However on... dropping in at 22.45 and ordering pints this seemed to be too much for the barmaid who had to check with the manager! Once this was granted we were duly served but under the feeling that we had to neck them (as we were told the pub would close very soon after 11). the experience wasn't one to linger in the mind fully apart from the "welcome" pubs and places in the hospitality trade are usually places you expect just that - hospitality - it may have been a long day and all that but the bloody places are supposed to be open to that time. FFS, what a joke of a pub and on a Friday night too. More

We are sorry that you had a less than satisfactory visit to The Yacht recently. As you can see from other reviews, we pride ourselves on being courteous and very friendly towards all of our customers. So that we can look into this properly ,could... More

I'm only an occasional visitor to The Yacht, but was passing tonight so popped in – out of curiosity – for a pint. Warmly welcomed by the barman, the Covid-safe procedure was explained and I was shown to a marvellous table overlooking the Thames as... the sun was setting – a beautiful sight. I wasn't planning to eat, but as the barman also told me about the Eat Out to Help Out offer it seemed rude not to. Food came fast and it was great – I only wish I had taken a friend with me to enjoy the experience. Service was impeccable, food delicious and a very safe environment. I'll be making my visits more frequent from now on. More

yacht greenwich

Pete S, thank you for your kind words and this wonderful review! We hope to see you again soon!

I really like the ambience of this pub and a seat at the open window looking right over the Thames is to die for. We usually have drinks here but this time we went for Sunday lunch. We were very disappointed - not sure if... there was a problem in the kitchen but this was not explained. We waited nearly an hour after we ordered to get our food. When it arrived, the cod and chips looked like it had been sitting under a hot lamp for a long while as it was overcooked bordering on burnt. The salad was bland with an indiscernible dressing. The roast beef looked congealed but my husband said it tasted better than it looked. My steak and ale pie, mash and greens was the exception as it was very good. We weren't asked if our food was ok and this is probably because they knew what the answer would have been! It's a shame because they're really friendly and it's a great pub but please do sort out the kitchen. More

Thank you for your feedback and I am so pleased you enjoyed your pie. We use the honest reviews of our customers such as yourself to improve our service when we need to and it seems on this occasion we let you down with the... More

The waitress was rude and patronizing. Did not know anything about my booking, was patronizing and very unpleasant. It was my job to be nice and to 'smile'! I left immediately and will never come back. I went to Trafalgar Tavern instead and had a... lovely time - great food, we were served by two waitresses during my stay - both very nice and professional. More

Hi 660milenak, I'd really appreciate the opportunity to speak to you about your experience, if you have a spare moment please could you get in touch 020 8858 0175

We visited on a Sunday and after ordering our food realised we needed to leave before we had time to eat due to public transport. The staff insisted we take it with us as we had paid and proceeded to pack it into takeaway boxes... ! I did manage to enjoy a delicious glass of red wine 🍷 . Lovely views. More

Thank you so much for the positive feedback. Our team work really hard to ensure all our guests have a great experience when they visit us ... even if they have to leave sooner than planned! Come back and see us again soon.

1. Was asked to pay a deposit for mother’s day lunch. That’s fine. 2. Booked far in advance and requested a windows seat. Was given a seat with barely any light at all. Not ideal. Was told they had all the seats booked by the... windows, but we definitely saw place we could have sat for the duration of our meal. 3. Was told only after trying to order that all the light lunch items and a number of the main items were not available. 4. Attitude of the lady behind the bar was dismissive. But a shining light was the serving staff who were lovely. I’d have thought if they knew it would be busy enough to require a deposit, they’d have been able to get half their stock in. This place might be good for locals who want a pint while they watch the game, but I won’t ever rely on them to accommodate an occasion again. More

Thank you for leaving your feedback. I have reached out to you directly using the email address you booked your table with.

The Captain Islands (Great Captain, Little Captain and Wee Captain) are barrier islands off Greenwich’s coast that are a splendid cruising destination and anchorage; check local charts and navigation aids to avoid submerged rocks. Great Captain Island features a 19th century lighthouse. The Town of Greenwich operates a ferry service out of Greenwich Harbor to Great Captain Island and to Island Beach during the summer season, June through mid-September. Great Captain Island has campsites and trails available by permit to residents only; the lighthouse is not available for tours. Part of the island is a wildlife preserve and the site of the largest wading bird rookery in Connecticut, with 300 nesting pairs of egrets and herons. Calf Island is a 31.5 acre protected island less than ¾ mile from the Byram Shore (Byram Park beach) and about 1 mile from Great Captain Island. It is the largest offshore island in Greenwich and connected at low tide to Greenwich Land Trust’s Shell Island.

Calf Island’s diverse coastal habitat provides excellent foraging and roosting for wading birds. The island was acquired in 2003 by US Fish & Wildlife and is now a unit of the Stewart B McKinney National Wildlife Refuge. With 97% of Connecticut coastline developed, protected barrier islands are vital to the survival of local and migratory birds. Several of the other barrier islands are privately owned. The islands have an interesting history of ownership, development, and usage, especially during the years of The Prohibition when rumrunners frequented the Long Island Sound and Connecticut’s shoreline; barrier islands were often used to stash bootleg liquor. Some had been developed as private summer retreats and resorts prior to Stock Market Crash and Great Depression.

The Town of Greenwich was a farming community when the land between the Asamuck and Patomuck Rivers was purchased from the Munsee Indians in 1640 and settled. Greenwich Point in the Old Greenwich area was called “Elizabeth’s Neck” for early settler, Elizabeth Fones Winthrop, daughter in law to John Winthrop who was founder and governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Greenwich became a township in 1665. Farming continued well into the 20th century, and several exclusive housing developments are named for the farms they now occupy—Conyers Farm, West Lyon Farm, and Baldwin Farms are a few. Today’s estates, owned by some of the wealthiest people, continue in the farming legacy of the past, producing eggs, butter, milk, smoked meats, fruits, and vegetables for sale, creating a bucolic retreat from the stress of the City and office.

The Revolutionary War turned peaceful Greenwich into a destructive battlefield for 7 years, as farms, homes, crops, and lives were destroyed. Agriculture continued for 200 years as Greenwich’s major source of income. Grist mills brought a shift to industry and shipping from the Mianus River. In 1848, the railroad came to Greenwich and with it brought changes, notably European immigrants looking for work. Distinct neighborhoods developed, continuing through second and third generations. The late 19th century-early 20th century saw the development of summer resorts for New Yorkers and shoreline hotels were built to accommodate the many affluent summer visitors. Many of these wealthy families built their own summer homes, and some like Rockefeller, Havemeyer, Benedict, Mallory, and others amassed large land holdings and built the grand estates Greenwich is famous for. With major transportation infrastructure added in the 20th century (Merritt Parkway in 1938 and I-95 in 1957) the town’s population grew, adding New York City corporation employees who preferred the suburban lifestyle.

Escalating land prices and this influx of new residents led to escalating land prices, sub-division, and a sell-off of Greenwich land to accommodate the demand. In the latter part of the 20th century, a growing number of residents became concerned about protecting and preserving the historical heritage of Greenwich and as a result local historical districts were formed, along with 6 National Register districts, to prevent historical landmarks from disappearing. Over 280 structures were recognized by the Greenwich Historical Society, as advocates for historic preservation, in its Landmarks Program. The Town and private non-profit organizations acquired undeveloped land for park and conservation areas.

Some examples of Landmark Places are the Sylvanus Selleck Gristmill – built c. 1796; listed 1990 in NRHP (National Register of Historic Places), Josiah Wilcox House – built 1838; listed 1988 in NRHP, Rosemary Hall (aka Japanese School) – built 1901-1928; listed 1998 in NRHP, Thomas Lyon House (aka Lyon Cottage) – built 1695; listed 1977 in NRHP, Indian Harbor Yacht Club – built 1920; listed 2010 in NRHP, Peake-Ferris House – built c 1760 is the oldest in Greenwich and one of the oldest in the US; listed 1989 in NRHP, and French Farm – built 1906-1911, listed 1975 in NRHP.

The downtown Greenwich Avenue Shopping District has been the heartbeat of the town for centuries and is world-renowned, as Greenwich has recently become an international visitor hot spot. Greenwich Avenue features upscale specialty shops and retail chains, boutiques, and a variety of eateries in a historic, tree-lined setting of stately brick buildings. Stanton House Inn, established in 1985, is a boutique inn with 20 guestrooms located near Greenwich Avenue shopping. Homestead Inn is a converted Victorian Manor house in Belle Haven, one of the wealthiest Greenwich neighborhoods, close to the Greenwich Avenue shopping and dining hub. In Old Greenwich, another extremely affluent neighborhood, shopping is along South Beach Avenue lined with high-end shops, restaurants, specialty retailers, and more.

Greenwich Country Club, originally founded in 1892 as Fairfield County Golf Club, was the fourth golfing club established in the U.S. The name was changed in 1909 as the Club had expanded its activities and facilities. The Club offers a variety of amenities—tennis, squash, paddle, aquatics, fitness, bowling, and more, besides the18-hole golf course renovated by Beau Welling. The Clubhouse features 3 different dining choices—grand ballroom, poolside café, and a casual dining venue.

The luxurious Delamar Greenwich hotel features the L’Escale waterfront restaurant serving Provencal and Mediterranean cuisine. Delamar Greenwich Harbor is a private marina with 500ft of dockage accommodating yachts (sail and motor) up to 180ft. Amenities include full time dock attendants, water, and up to 100amp 3 phase 208 electrical hook-ups. Marina guests can enjoy the hotel’s spa, fitness center and 24-hour coffee service amenities, and dine in the highly rated L’Escale restaurant.

The Town of Greenwich Parks & Recreation operates 3 marinas and mooring locations.

What Our Clients Say!

Our Dealership has been selling trades with confidence over the years for quick liquidity, they create less stress on the deal for us, period.

In the purchase of my new build 55, I needed to sell my current boat, and did not want the hassle of dealing with the survey/brokers, they made me an offer, and took the boat.

During Covid 19 our family moved to the West Coast and we needed to sell our 48 & 29, they gave us an offer the same day and transacted in a professional manner.

Honest, straightforward guys. Magnus provided excellent market reads and made the process effortless as a seller. Definitely using them when I'm back in the market.

Yacht and Boat Clubs of Greenwich

By Local History Librarian March 17, 2017

Originally written by Carl White.

A friend recently asked me which was the oldest yacht and boat club in Greenwich. I said I thought it was the Indian Harbor Yacht Club on Steamboat Road. After all, this was the site where ferry boats from New York City and Long Island moored. Local agricultural products (apples, potatoes, etc) were once shipped from this location. Once people from New York City began to vacation in “the country”, they began sailing on Long Island Sound.  So this was the most logical place for a yacht and boat club to pop up. My first thought was to grab Karen Jewell’s book “ A History of the Greenwich Waterfront ” (2011). She’d used the Local History vertical files and reference collection for her research.  I then checked the history section of the websites for the individual clubs. Finally, I reviewed several Oral History Project Redbooks and transcripts for more information.

The Riverside Yacht Club

Well, I was close!  It just so happens that the Riverside Yacht Club was formed on May 25, 1888. Mr. George I Tyson, a successful businessman, and yachtsman donated an acre of land along the Riverside shoreline. He wanted to organize a unique group of his friends for the purpose of sailing. Tyson even paid to have a new clubhouse built. Karen Jewell states that this was the second club to be founded in Connecticut and the eighth on Long Island Sound, despite the rise and fall of many startups.

The Victorian-style clubhouse was built in 1889. Part of it was built on pilings near a seawall. It contained a kitchen, ballroom, reading rooms, card rooms, bedrooms, locker rooms, and an expansive wrap-around porch. There was even a news article in The New York Herald about the new clubhouse! The club became so popular that it wasn’t long before the members were clamoring for more space. A new “spar loft” was added in 1893. Commodore Tyson once again funded the new addition. It included a billiard room, shuffleboard area, bowling area, staff housing, and horse sheds. The club was able to hold Midsummer Balls and Saturday Evening Hops. The 180-member club owned 10 steam-powered yachts and 52 sailboats. Eventually, the club began participating in regattas, and a Junior Sailing Program was initiated.

The club managed to flourish, despite several setbacks. On September 21, 1938, the “Great New England Hurricane” flooded the main and junior clubhouses. Amazingly, no boats were damaged. The clubhouse was back in service the next day due to a superhuman effort by staff and club members. The War Years (World War I & II) proved financially challenging for the Riverside Yacht Club. As the nation was redirecting material and financial resources toward the war, the club faced financial hardship, which it was able to overcome. As the war was winding down, another hurricane hit Greenwich from September 14 to 15, 1944. Although the clubhouse escaped damage, this time the vessels were damaged.

Indian Harbor Yacht Club

Surprisingly, the Indian Harbor Yacht Club was founded in New York City in July 1889, and incorporated in New York State on April 11, 1892.  Elbert A. Silleck and Richard Outwater were the only Greenwich members. The first clubhouse was set up on Finch’s (Tweed’s) Island. Members would travel from New York City to Greenwich. The clubhouse stayed there from 1892 to 1895. When E.C. Benedict bought the land in  1895, the club tried to get Benedict to agree to rent Finch’s Island as a “Club Station.” When Benedict didn’t respond, IHYC started a search for a new site.

Initially, a Rocky Point Neck site was selected, but the deal fell through. After other considerations, a permanent home was built in 1897 on Steamboat Road. It was renovated in 1898 to include a new grill room with an adjoining café, formal dining room, storage rooms, additional storage rooms, a larger piazza, and a 278-foot jetty.

On October 3, 1919, the clubhouse was completely destroyed by a fire. The damage was estimated to be100-thousand dollars. The building was only insured for 30 thousand dollars. Fortunately, the Club was able to raise enough money to build a new clubhouse, which opened on Memorial Day 1921. Today, it remains a (navigational) landmark adjacent to Greenwich Harbor.

The Belle Haven Yacht Club

Around the same time as the Indian Harbor Yacht Club was established, the Belle Haven Land Company established “The Greenwich Casino Association.” It was hoped that this would help attract people to buy property on the peninsula. The term casino may be misleading since it was initially used to refer to a place for social interaction (i.e. meetings, entertainment, dancing but not gambling.) A clubhouse was opened on July 4, 1892. Activities included boating, swimming, tennis, horse shows, live music, and theater. In 1926, the name of the organization was changed to The Beach Club. It was only open for part of the year. Club boating didn’t become popular until 1953 when a member introduced a new fiberglass sloop. This seemed to pique interest, and more people joined the club. By 1961, the name was changed to The Belle Haven Yacht Club.

The Byram Shore Boat Club

The Byram Shore Boat Club was founded in 1938. It was formed for people who enjoyed yachting, sailing, fishing, and boating, as well as education in seamanship and navigation. The clubhouse was built in 1935 and 67 marina berths were added in 1970. Club events included a Seafood Bakeoff, St Patrick’s Day Party, movie nights, Rock the Docks concert, and New England Clambakes. There were approximately 270 members.

Greenwich Boat and Yacht Club

The Greenwich Boat and Yacht Club (GBYC) was established on Grass Island in 1938. Several businessmen formed it so that residents could enjoy boating. They also worked closely with the Town to enhance the harbor area. The current boathouse was built in 1955, and the docks provided 65 slips.

An outside view of the Greenwich Yacht Club

Old Greenwich Yacht Club

At the eastern end of Town, the Old Greenwich Yacht Club (OGYC) was formed in 1943. It was formed to provide sailing education and social interaction. Walter Pendleton served as the first Commodore. A boathouse was built as the first clubhouse, and a deep-water dock extended out toward Sand Island. The Town purchased Tod’s Point in 1945 and planned to convert a “three-car garage” building into a clubhouse. It had double doors that opened to a work pit for trucks and automobiles. A coal-fired boiler provided hot water heat. Future additions included a porch and shed. In 1938, the Great Hurricane destroyed the dock. Small boats had to be pulled up on shore and tied to stakes. Large vessels anchored offshore. Club boats were pulled into the clubhouse for maintenance.

Going Down To The Sea In Ships

So the Riverside Yacht Club beat out the Indian Harbor Yacht Club by a year. I’m happy to say that each of the boating and yachting clubs appears to be healthy and vibrant today. I love to take the ferry out to Island Beach and see all the boats on Long Island Sound on the weekend. It reminds me of the important role boating and sailing (and Long Island Sound) have played in the history of Greenwich. Although commercial boating has waned, recreational boating flourishes. There’s something about a sail filled with wind, carrying a boat quietly across the water. It’s somehow magical.

May the residents of Greenwich continue to “go down to the sea in ships,” and keep the spirit of adventure alive.
