Some pictures from our day in Greenport. Apparently the Brooklyn Cup is a race that has been suspended for a couple of decades and this year began again. The race course goes around Block I Island and back to Long Island -over night. I learned that a knot is fifteen percent faster than 'miles per hour".
Marth, Love the photos of the sailboat race. THANK YOU! I have grown up on the Great Lakes and I never knew what a knot was until you posted this. I am the daughter of a sailor, and the great grand daughter of many who sailed the oceans back in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Special meaning to me. I see your boat photo and think of them. Thank you, enjoy your day off. Carla
