    Notice the Trinity logo on the lower left of the stern door? As if to say... "if you can read this, you're in 2nd place".

    Glowing like a beacon on a stormy night; the mast on the Doggersbank "Beothuk".

    What you can't see in the daylight comes out for those perusing the docks after dark. M/Y Migliori Amici is like a chamelion. The lights change every few seconds, from this...

    Monday, November 2nd; Closing Day​

    And while we're talkin' vantage points, check this out; Maraya's fold-out beach platform, located off the master suite. (this is the starboard side of the boat!)

    Filling a void in the market for steel hull trawlers, this is the Bering 55. This was Judy Waldman's office at this year's show. A review will follow in 2010.
