Triton Sighting

Post by Tim »

I saw this dark-hulled Triton off Rockland yesterday. We were headed in opposite directions and I didn't get very close, so couldn't identify the boat.

I zoomed in as far as I could with my camera, but unfortunately it couldn't catch the sail number.

Hmmm. Funny, I was considering a Triton a few years back; #620, Skylark. Then, a couple of weeks ago, while vacationing in Southwest Harbor, I noticed a blue hulled Triton out in the mooring field. THEN, a couple of days later, I helped him tie up at the town dock and noticed the name. I asked if he bought it just a few years before, and sure enough, it was the same Triton, Skylark! Nice fellow named Brad owns her.

I suppose this story is related, because it IS a dark blue hull and sort of in the same neck of the woods...
