Noticed a small blurb in today's Bainbridge Review, our local rag, which ballyhooed a local yacht design firm. It mentioned the MV Meander - which was built at Northern Marine by Mike Harrington, of T&T fame, and which I presume is still owned by him. <<<< YACHT INTERIOR WINS TOP HONORS Scott Cole of the Bainbridge Island yacht design firm Ardeo Design recently won the 2004 Northwest Design Awards Yacht/Jet design category first and second place awards. Their classic, traditional yacht interior design for a custom 87-foot motor yacht 'Souvenir' for Chicago area clients won first place. Their Arts and Crafts inspired interior design for a custom 80-foot Northern Marine expedition yacht 'Meander' for San Juan Island clients won second place. Ardeo Deign recently celebrated their seventh year in business on Bainbridge Island. Its website is www.ardeodesign.com.>>>> When we built our boat, we did check out Ardeo but didn't go with them. They do interesting work. So - I don't owe them money and they don't owe me. No kickbacks here -- Just thought you all might be interested. Best, John Peters Winship - a 49' Sunnfjord
