A Record-Breaking Year: Thank You from the Bluefin Blowout Team!

A message from Warren:

From a record number of boats, sponsors, advertisers, and donors, this year’s Bluefin Blowout was probably the best ever. Great food from Vinwood Caterers and participating food trucks, expert service from the Mile Marker bartenders, and Kyle’s amazing dock team—and how about the weather?

Thanks to Drew Hale and Scotty Mac for entertaining us with their “dock talk.” Special thanks to Cidalia and her marketing team for their tireless effort and months of organizing and planning.

A huge thank you to the Dominick family for their generosity in hosting the Bluefin Blowout at Cape Ann Marina.

And lastly, we are making a difference. The awareness and goodwill this event brings to the Alzheimer’s Association is powerful and far-reaching.

Our check presentation to the Alzheimer’s Association will take place on August 27th, once again generously hosted by the Beauport Hotel. We’re excited to reveal this year’s final total — and there’s still time to contribute! If you feel led to give, please [CLICK HERE] to donate.
