Rona has given my family and me tremendous fun and adventure since we bought her in 2009. We’ve taken her on many trips in southern New England waters- Gardiner’s Bay. Long Island Sound, Block Island, Fishers Island, Newport, Cuttyhunk, Noank, Mystic Seaport. We’ve grown, though, and need to move on to a bigger boat.
