MIDDLEBURG. Va. - Al
though the Middleburg area
is far from big water. as the
Bentleys and Mercedes fly,
there is a curious phenomenon
about the so-called hunt
country. There are almost as
many people whose interest
runs to boats as there are
those whose lives are dedi-
Gated to the horse.
Sometimes, like guest
towels, the two pursuits can
be divided into his" and
hers" but, more often, it's
a family interest. Cruising,
Watching, sailing and fishing.
far from blue grass pastures,
make for that balanced life
that people keep writing and
talking about.
For the yachtsman it takes a
little money but for the out
board cruiserman it takes
only the courage to shut the
barn door. grease the trailer
hitch. and head for the blue
waters.

Jupiter Island, Fla. Jupiter

Beach.
Tricky Trip
According to Matt, his
neighbor, Mr.. Kennedy, was
cruising on the Honey Fitz
last winter along the Florida
coast. People on the shore
grew curious as the Honey
Fitz headed toward shore
and Jupiter Inlet, one of the
trickiest on the Florida coast.
The captain Of the Honey
Fitz asked the Coast Guard
about conditions Of the inlet.
Word came back that the
inlet was unmarked and un-
der no conditions should it
be attempted without local
knowledge.
And there was Matt oper-
ating his fishing boat, the
only person operating a char
ter boat out Of the inlet.
Matt also delivers boats be-
tween the Bahamas and New
England in the spring and
fall leaving the summers free
