Also a good place to be if you’re shopping for a new vehicle…and have some money to burn. Lyon-Waugh Auto Group doesn’t kid around. Some nice, nice rides.

Bluefin Blowout, Baby!

Posted on by Nichole S.

As always, this is a legitimate tuna tournament, with action not to be missed.

In fact, it is “New England’s Premier Giant Bluefin Tuna Tournament” and it does not disappoint.

Great work done by the organizers, the sponsors, the boat crews, and everyone else involved.

A great chance to peak inside what this side of the fishing industry can be like!

The crowd was excited, the competition was on…yet friendly, the Orion was up to their usual antics all “Funky Red Barn” style, and the fish were…well, BIG.

A heartfelt moment of silence for past “Weigh Master”, Mark Godfried (whom I worked for and loved), was a really nice touch.

To kick-off this year’s tournament, Day #1 ended with The Miss Fern bringing in a fish that weighed 805 pounds.  It was immediately followed by Tuna.com’s 913 pounder.  Yikes!

Congratulations to all!    Check out tournament info here

30 days to the Schooner Race. Act now for a slot on Tyrone

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Actresses aboard Tyrone this past spring off Nantucket filming ‘Peter and John’, a Cain and Abel story of sorts. No murder though. Rather, a sail off into the fog for the disenfranchised.

Presently Tyrone is looking for paying guests to act in the upcoming Gloucester Mayor’s Cup Race, this time as crew.  More info here
