Thanks to our friends at the Dorchester Yacht Club who hosted 60 members and staff on the 5th Annual Harbor Cruise last week. Over 10 Captains hosted small groups on their boats as they took a two hour tour of the inner harbor. The group returned to the Club where they were treated to a BBQ lunch and Ice Cream. Thanks again to the Yacht Club for their hospitality.
