9-30-07. in 2006, this was an item in Duxbury Bay Maritime School's on-line auction, donated by Harbor Pilot Richard Stover. I HAD to have it, so I bypassed any potential bidding war and clicked the 'buy it now' button! Finally organized it ( for a day when I knew QM2 would be in!) What a great day! Amazing ships, the Pilot Boat itself is a fantastic vessel and guys on board (Sean, Tom, Jreck- boat operators and Scott- Pilot) were great. And the weather was PERFECT by late afternoon. Light easterlies, bright blue sky, clear as a bell.
