Aphrodite

Mystic Seaport, Mystic, CT

This is one of my favorite boats of all time.  I've seen her many times at Mystic Seaport, usually at the Antique Boat Show held each summer.  She was just one of many "small" craft that came to witness the launch of the Morgan.  I can't think of a more appropriate name for this boat.

  1. Ed, have to agree with you. That is a gorgeous boat. Would love to spend some time on a boat like this, but that's unlikely. Beautiful photo.

    1. When I see a boat like this, I know why we refer to boats using "female" pronouns. I'm pretty sure her home "port" is in nearby Westerly/Watch Hill, RI. Being so close, she visits Mystic Seaport often. It's always a thrill to see her.
