Owner William Rowan, son Josh and daughter-in-law Bonnie, on May 2012 shake-down cruise. Photo by Doug RautenkranzFormer LoGro RepJ reporter Bonnie Obremski and hubby Josh Rowan departed Northfield three years ago but we hear from them regularly.

Their current adventure: the restoration of an 87-year-old wooden schooner with some help from Dan Dan Restoration named ‘Hindu’ (which has its own Wikipedia entry: Schooner Hindu) and the start of their charter sailing business.

I got this from Bonnie via a post to my Facebook Wall:

    Thx Griff! Have to clarify in light of grant rules that we more than welcome Northfielders whether you vote or not. Thanks folks!

  2. If you’re in a voting mood, here’s the link to Auditory Sciences’ application for the same program. Tweleve firms get the award, so it’s not a single winner type of deal.
