April 27, 2022: I just learned of this website in the magazine Maine Boats, Homes & Harbors . Thank you for setting it up! Thanks also for providing these great photos of my boat, which I bought in 2011 and have since day-sailed and taken on short cruises out of Southwest Harbor. Her previous name was KIOWA. After listing many possible names, including DINKY HINCKLEY, I settled on ARIA. Later I named the Nutshell pram that I tow TENEROSO, which is the Italian musical term meaning to sing “tenderly” - get it? ARIA has been a wonderful boat. I've just moved into a condo at the head of the harbor from where I can see her on her mooring. I'll be 88 in June and hope to enjoy more summers of sailing.
