From the Helm
Just around the corner...
Yes it will be spring soon!! Remember that late January and early February is the time to start your planning for the summer of 2012 and Eastern Yacht Sales at Hellier would like to be a part of that planning process.
Here's the deal!! Bow thrusters are being installed, hurricane damage to a client's boat is being repaired, electronics are being installed on new boats sold last year, dockage being planned, summer excursion plans being developed for Block Island and Greenport... Verne and I are getting ready for you.
We also hear that Opsail 2012 is being planned for New London on July 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th. Huge crowds are expected for the arrival of the tall ships (better give Crocker's Boatyard a call if you plan to attend) and that is also the fireworks weekend.
We will have a new Island Packet 360 and 465, a new Catalina 385 and a new Jeanneau 409 in stock in New London after the Boston Boat Show (February 11-19). Want to take a look at a new boat? Thinking of trading or selling your existing boat? Need some advice on repairs or new equipment? We are tuned in to the latest developments and can help you make that decision or advise the most efficient solution to your project.
I hope you can sense the excitement with which we are looking forward to our first summer season as a member of the Eastern Yacht Sales family.

The 465 offers exceptional livability and practical cruising features coupled with impeccable craftsmanship and handsome good looks. The large center cockpit provides more than just a comfortable place for your crew to congregate. It provides a safe working area from which you can perform all the necessary adjustments underway. Wide side decks, strategically placed hand rails and recessed foredecks maximize your safety on deck.As beautiful as the 465 is to behold, it's even more appealing below decks. The expansive main saloon boasts more than seven feet of headroom, a well-appointed combination of hand crafted teak furnishings, cabinetry and storage, a nav station that would excite any world cruiser, a gourmet galley fit for a master chef and two of the most spacious staterooms you'll find anywhere.Entering via the comfortably angled companionway steps, your attention will be drawn to full-length settees. The port settee extends to the centerline to make a double berth, and both settees can be used as sea berths. The large main dining table stows against a bulkhead wine rack, opening up the area for socializing. A smaller, removable table is also available, which mounts on either side of the saloon for added flexibility while dining or entertaining. CE Category A – Ocean rated safety windows provide a panoramic view and overhead lights and numerous reading lamps with individual dimmers are found throughout.
