Napoli moves to VA

[5monkeys]

Memorial Day weekend a small contingency of the 5Monkeys Yacht club, consisting of #2 Monkey and myself, set out on an expedition from Virginia to Maine, on our  journey would carry us to meet up some fellow CPYOA members Cycle and PhilB.

Upon our departure we found ourselves the new custodians of S/V Napoli (cp-19 hull#52) and her new(to her) mast. She's a beautiful vessel and has clearly been cared for and loved.

The current condition of the East Coast Highway system was a bit of a strain on the 35 year old trailer and some of the u-bolts on the trailer gave in to the hardship of the journey resulting in a brief stay at a repair facility in Waterbury, CT.

However, feeling the emotional void of our beloved Napoli residing so far away from us. A cutting out mission was at hand, a new crew was commissioned consisting of myself, Grampa Monkey,  #4monkey and #5monkey. and after a hard 17 hour battle of traffic, construction, accidents, and weather. Napoli has arrived at her new home in VA.

All Members of the 5monkeys yacht club are "over the moon".

I'd also like to say to  PhilB and Cycle. You are gentlemen among men! I'm glad to have met you, this was the most pleasant of transactions.

Fairwinds,

Keith
