I'm hyperventilating! Umiaq just passed to a new owner and left a few minutes ago. I'll let the new owner introduce himself (assuming he follows my suggestion to join the list), but will say that Tom is a really nice guy and Umiaq will stay in the Chesapeake. This is the most enjoyable mailing list I know, and I hope to remain a participant for the foreseeable future. It wouldn't even be too surprising if there was another Montgomery somewhere in the future. Giles Morris (now Montgomery-less)
Giles, I don't know whether to say congratulations, or to offer grieving support. I have certainly appreciated your contributions over the years, and hope that you stay engaged with the group.

I don't know if congratulations is the right thing to say! I know its always tough to part with a boat. I, too am waiting for a new owner to take Grace home so my situation is similar. "Parting is such sweet sorrow" maybe the old bard had some experience with boats. I hope you stay and continue to contribute to the list.
