in 1862 to smuggle supplies to the U.S. Confederacy,
the Modern Greece ran aground near Fort Fisher
in June that same year. Shoaled or scuttled, her

historians. By Dr. Chris E. Fonvielle Jr.

Inspired by New England’s rocky seacoast, this
rambling Shingle Style home was adapted for
its marshy setting on North Carolina’s Intracoastal
Waterway where Nantucket makes Landfall.
Anchored by an octagon, the design was a
creative challenge for one of its homeowners,
also its interior designer. By Brandy Brinson

John McCauley did an amazing
job maneuvering his Hinckley
Picnic Boat for the set of our
Savor food shoot. The weather
was a huge obstacle for getting
images of the boat underway.
Thanks to Chris Bailey and his
son Cameron, we took over the
ICWW one evening, shooting the
boat in several different locations
and lighting scenarios to get soft
light and to show the great lines
of this timeless nautical vessel.
