How did you get interested in newporters? Tell me a little about yourself.
My long-time friend, Bob Mitchell, is rebuilding (an understatement) a Newporter 40.

    John,

    What can I say?  Welcome?  You bet.  But let me warn you: being a friend of Bob's is the sure way to get tangled up in Newporters!  Over the last five years or so, as my friendship with Bob developed, he managed to get me thinking about Newporters almost every minute of the day.  But it's been fun, so don't be afraid of him, he makes the best kind of friend.

    Enjoy your time among us, for we are a happy bunch.

    Peace,   Clyde

    This is George Henderson, owner of "Faith," Hull #69 located in the Boston area. Just letting the community know that she is on the market since I now live in CO. She is priced to sell and comes with an as-new inflatable dingy, outboard, second set of sails and loads of gear.

    Makes me sad but I'd like to see her legacy continue. If you know of a potential buyer I can be reached at georgehenderson.usa@gmail.com / 857-221-1581. She is in great condition and has been lovingly restored. There are pics on my members' page and a link to a Google Drive folder is below, where you will find pics and a survey.
