Gawanus Harbor by Night

Story

1.  The Awful Truth

Moonraker was a Brown designed open-wing Searunner 31 built around the Huntington area of Long Island in the 1970's  by an engineer.  She was well built and reasonably well cared for, but for some unknown reason she ended up needing a new owner.

I had just gotten a new job, met Irene, the woman I would marry a year later, and got a full time teacher and part time multihull yacht broker on Long Island whom I had bought my Brown Searunner 25 from years earlier.
