Hippie Chic boat movers is meeting us at the barn today. By 3PM this afternoon MON TIKI should be in the Montauk Marine Basin shipyard an we’ll be getting on to final assembly. It’s about 30 miles from our Bridgehampton boatshop to the shipyard, right through the middle of some of the fanciest places on the East End. Should be quite a sight. Follow @CaptDavidRyan on twitter for pictures of the move!

Woo hoo!Report
Now the ancient Pellerwoinen
Takes the hatchet from his shoulder,
Takes his axe with copper handle,
Chops the body of the oak-tree;
Well he knows the art of chopping.
Soon he fells the tree majestic,
Fells the mighty forest-monarch,
With his magic axe and power.
From the stems he lops the branches,
Splits the trunk in many pieces,
Fashions lumber for the bottom,
Countless boards, and ribs, and braces,
For the singer’s magic vessel,
For the boat of the magician.
Wainamoinen, old and skilful,
The eternal wonder-worker,
Builds his vessel with enchantment,
Builds his boat by art of magic,
From the timber of the oak-tree,
From its posts, and planks, and flooring.
Sings a song, and joins the frame-work;
Sings a second, sets the siding;
Sings a third time, sets the row-locks;
Fashions oars, and ribs, and rudder,
Joins the sides and ribs together.
When the ribs were firmly fastened,
When the sides were tightly jointed,
Then alas! three words were wanting,
Lost the words of master-magic,
How to fasten in the ledges,
How the stern should be completed,
How complete the boat’s forecastle.Report
Good luck!Report
David, “Hippy Chick” doesn’t move boats, it supplies surrogate mothers. I think you mean “Hippie Chic.”Report
