It appears the ‘August people’ are here in July…
By Brian-Logan Reid, Broker
An interesting thing happened over the last several days…several people, including myself, have noticed that the infamous “August people”* may have come early. While the fourth of July always tends to bring in the well-heeled, it looks like they are here a bit earlier than last year. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many Range Rovers in my time on Nantucket!
Herb Gallen’s (of Ellen Tracy fame) large (164′) and incredibly beautiful Mystique yacht was docked in prestigious Nantucket harbor over the last week, pretty much by herself, but that is soon to change as the jet set start pulling in their super yachts in the next few weeks…
I look forward to it!
* “August people” generally consist of the wealthiest residents and vacationers that frequent Nantucket. They own the largest houses, the newest vehicles, the largest yachts and if they don’t come in by private boat, they have either the largest or fastest yets (either privately owned, or chartered). This is a broad generalization, but sometimes it’s fun to make general observations!
