Friday, November 4, 1994 - Newport, RI

We lucked out. Beautiful sunny day today. We left at quarter to six and reached Newport around three. Had a great sail part of the way, but then had to use the engine. We're actually on our way!
Frank's wife drove to Newport to pick him up. Roy wanted to take the new diesel heater that he'd shipped from California and that had been bent out of shape in transit to a West Marine store to see if they'd exchange it. Frank drove us over there and back in his wife's car. Sure enough, West Marine gave us a brand new heater without batting an eye. They certainly have an excellent exchange policy.
