I took Amy and Jessie on my favorite yacht in all of New York harbor, the Shearwater. It’s an 88-foot scooner sail boat built in the 20’s, with its beautiful original mahogany woodwork intact. My friend Tom owns it, and I use to volunteer sail it for him when he takes it out for harbor tours and such.

As we sailed and sipped on Champagne and wine, my friend Jasmine (she handles publicity for the boat) gets a call from Hamptons magazine confirming that they’ll be doing a 12 page spread or something of the Shearwater. Craziness! I’m so happy for Tom and Jasmine. The boat is beautiful - you can see some of the pics I took from the sail yesterday. Hey, it may not be Hamptons magazine, but not bad for a Canon Powershot lol.
