First, I have no interest or involvement in the following--the owner doesn't even know I'm posting this--in fact I barely know him.

Some members here know I'm happily located in a condo on the Mystic River with a boat slip outside (although my C-25 couldn't get to it). There's currently a [url="http://www.prudentialct.com/ListingDetails.aspx?norecord=0&LK=1545332"]similar 2-BR townhouse[/url], only with a better view than mine (but no basement), on the market for a price that you'll never see again for waterfront living in CT. You can see Sarge in her slip in some of the listing pictures. There are many marinas a few minutes away, as you can see below--Passage lived in one of them.

Sorry if this is inappropriate or annoying--I just thought somebody might be excited by this rare opportunity. The owner is anxious--moving to the Caribbean--and the river is frozen over at the moment, so it doesn't look <i>quite</i> like this...



Looking south at Mystic, Mason's Island, Fishers Island, and The Race... The condos are just off the bottom of the picture, north of the 25' fixed I-95 bridge.

Now on Eastern 27 Sarge (but still sailing) and posting as "Stinkpotter".

Looks like a great place to live, if I had to move north! I love that photo of the river/harbor area.

I took that photo from a friend's Piper Cherokee--also the aerial view of the condos in the listing. I gave that to each unit owner to use if they went on the market.

We'd have to triple the price! Anyway, I kinda like watching a snowstorm from my chair by the fireplace... or a rainy day on the river from my helm... the Spring colors, the Fall colors... and it all makes nice summer days that much more fun! Just like the thrill you feel when the earth shakes or the fires close in!
