Some Center Harbor boats.

 A few boats in at Center Harbor last weekend, all of them built right here. The lobsterboat "Biscuit" was built by Arno Day.
 "Lark", built at Brooklin Boatyard. Fast.
 "Grace", ketch, built at BBY. Inspired by L. Francis Herreshoff's "Quiet Tune" but a little bigger all around. She's for sale. 
 "Lark" again.
And "Vortex", also BBY. A ground-breaking, earth-shaking, rules-changing boat when it was launched. Still fast and still pretty.
