KISMET: THE PARTY LINE
Brendan O’Halleran turned 18 and Graduated High School – we have seen him go from a shy boy to a shy industrious young man - working with him Mom at the OUT, selling shirts for the KFD, helping out at the Clam Shucking contest and generally being useful. At 6’7”, 300 lbs he looks formidable but if you can coax a smile out of him the whole space around him lights up. His Dad, Mike, says “He’s just a big mush”. He will be off to CWPost College in August where he will play football with some of the boys he played against in high school (and go to classes)

CAT’S BIRTHDAY BASH
Text & pix by Sharon
Captain Ben assembled Pirates and other unsavory characters for the birthday celebration of his first mate Cat. Scallywags gathered from
7 Seas, Chance, Sanctuary, Kismet Bliss & BVT
It was a friendly mix of old salts and sprogs just getting their Kismet sea legs.
While some were happy with a gill of rum others dipped into the grog of lightening lemonade. Home made cakes that resembled tropical islands were served.
The Captain led us in song to honor his lady fair and merriment hung loftily in the air.
