Morris Service's Mark Mosenten aptly maneuvered the 52-foot yacht over the reconstructed launching pit. And gently lowered her into the drink. Mark Tubbs and crew that consisted of Jackson (who was busily emailing photos of the family's new boat to his Dad) the owners son who is working at Morris Service and others motored the boat around to Northeast Harbor. The boat will be a hive of activity with a systems being checked and rechecked, sails will be put on, and lists of details will be checked off before the owner arrives on Friday for seatrials and owner training.
