In the evening a very large motor vessel entered the anchorage and anchored in deeper water in the easterly waters of the bay. We could make out the name My Tribu, but not the port of call. The next morning, as we departed, we got close enough to make out the Port of "Genova." She was flying a flag that we determined to be Italian, with a United States Courtesy flag flying from the starboard burgee. She weighed anchor and departed shortly after our departure, and headed toward what we guessed might be Roche Harbor, or possible into Canada. She is a beautiful boat, and we were quite interested in her and happy to have seen her, now that we know whereof she came. Bon Voyage!
