It’s private air travel, reimagined.
It’s a belief rooted in service, peace and comfort.
It’s buttoned up. It’s relaxed.
It’s quiet. It’s confident.
It’s peace of mind. Knowing that you’re top of mind.
It’s your flight time. Becoming your free time.
It’s simplicity. It’s luxury. It’s Sentient.

TWO WATERFRONT HOMES - This property has two waterfront homes each on its own two acres creating together one incredible north shore estate. The main house, studio and cottage overlook four acres of ocean-front real estate on the north shore of Nantucket Island. From the deck surrounding the pool, the second floor balcony, and the manicured path that circumnavigates the property, you are always reminded that you are thirty miles out to sea on an oasis of warm sand, grass, and cool breezes.

August is Hot
DRINK IN THE VIEW JOIN THE SCENE drinks | dining | indoors | outdoors day | night
Beyond the weather, August is the hottest time of the year on Nantucket. From the Boston Pops to the Nantucket Antiques Show to the Boys and Girls Club Summer Groove,
the activity on the island this month can best be described as sizzling. The warmth of the island has drawn one of football’s hottest talents, Julian Edelman, who spoke with N Magazine about his attraction to Nantucket, football and the upcoming season. In an interview with Nantucket resident and Putnam Investment’s CEO Bob Reynolds, we learn about his own football past and his near miss as commissioner of the NFL. Reynolds has become known in his own right as a hotshot on the financial playing field, having turned around one of the nation’s largest mutual funds. This August issue also features a fascinating interview with NASA astronaut Andrew Feustel, who will be reentering space for a six-month stay on the Interna-

tional Space Station. N Magazine will be co-sponsoring an event with the Dreamland Theater on August 12th at 6:30 to hear firsthand what life is like in space. There are few topics that are at a higher boiling point this summer than Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. Some think Trump generates more heat than light, while others think he is blazing a new trail for American politics. N Magazine caught up with Trump’s eldest son and Nantucket visitor Don Trump Jr., who shared his insights on the campaign and his personal experience as a highly visible surrogate for his father. Another topic that has engulfed the island and beyond is the story of opiate abuse and its devastating effects on families and communities. Not only is Nantucket not immune to this growing epidemic, it is a problem that has plagued the

island for decades and only appears to be getting worse. In an extensive piece written by Jason Graziadei, interesting points emerge, including how the medical community itself may be contributing to this problem. Finally, in a story that celebrates physical skill and remarkable discipline, N Magazine profiles five Olympic athletes who consider Nantucket their summer home. While each of them has their own individual story, there is a common thread between all of them, which includes hard work, focus and a burning desire to win. With this, our largest issue in the history of N Magazine, we wish you a wonderful August. Sincerely,

When Sergiu Iancu and his wife, Alla, brought their two-year-old son, Maxim, to the hospital for an injured foot, they had no idea of the ordeal that lay ahead. After Maxim’s foot refused to heal, the Iancus brought him to Boston Children’s Hospital. They wouldn’t leave for another five weeks. Doctors discovered Maxim had leukemia. The young boy underwent twenty-four months of chemotherapy, countless blood transfusions and tests, and was unable to walk for a year. Throughout that time, the Iancus commuted back and forth from Nantucket to Boston where Maxim received treatment. “It’s been a journey and an experience that I don’t want anyone to go through,” says Iancu. Thankfully, Maxim recently finished treatment and is getting back to being a kid again. Although his family is happily moving forward with their life, they will never forget the trials of fighting disease, a fight that many continue to wage here on the island. In honor of his son and those like him who are fighting illness, Iancu designed a bracelet. “The Maxbliss bracelet is to inspire all people to appreciate their happy place in the world,” the

Modeled after Joseph Campbell’s idea of “the hero’s journey,” Threshold is about the inner voyage that everyone must take to become a better person and have a positive impact on the world. “The threshold is the moment we pass from the ordinary to the extraordinary, in pursuit of a higher purpose,” said TNP co-founder Tom Scott.

flavors and culinary influences, Banjara insists that his focus is on quality. He only uses fresh fish, never frozen fish, and makes everything from scratch, from his pizza dough and sauce to his naan bread. Open since early April, the new proprietor at 149 Orange Street said he is still in the process of earning the business back from the Foood faithful after those doors were closed and they went through a month of renovations. In the meantime, his focus on Asian cuisines has brought in a new repertoire of customers excited for new avenues of culinary experience and expression on Nantucket. “The name Shangri-La is very popular in Asia,” Banjara says. “When I asked around, friends and family thought it would be a good name for the business.” Indeed, in James Hilton’s 1933 novel “Lost Horizon” Shangri-La is described as a mystical and exotic paradise. Through the years, the word has become synonymous with someplace too good to be true. Thankfully on Nantucket, Shangri-La appears to have come to life.
ormerly the home of well-known sandwich and pizza shop Foood for Here & There, Shangri-La Kitchen is the creation of chef Bharat Banjara, a Nepalese native who has lived on Nantucket since 2002. Trained as a chef in Nepal, Banjara first came to the island to work summers, but quickly found himself here year-round, first rolling sushi at Sushi by Yoshi and then later at the sushi kiosk at the new mid-island Stop & Shop. Banjara’s sushi rolls made the kiosk an island favorite. Now the chef has rolled his skills to his own location on Orange Street. “It is a bit of a mixed cuisine, a mix of Asian and American,” says Banjara. His menu boasts his specialty of sushi, with a variety of nigiri and sashimi rolls. The menu also ventures into the cuisine of his homeland, offering Indian staples like a delicious chicken tikka masala, vindaloo and lamb curry, with sides of mimosas and dumplings, which are known as “momos” in Nepal. “The island doesn’t have a lot of options for curries and the spicier foods, and people have really liked what we offer,” he said, adding that For those who came to love the pizza previously offered by Fooods, not to worry: Banjara has fired the pizza ovens back up, offering a variety of styles and toppings. Other “American” menu items include burgers, French fries and a variety of subs and sides. Amidst the wide range of

Local artist Bob Dane is bringing glass blowing back to the Boys & Girls Club this August.
Glass blowing is not for the faint of heart. An average day begins laboring in front of a furnace burning at a scorching 2,200 degrees. “You need to keep the temperature the same the whole time,” says Robert Dane, who has been working with glass for nearly forty years. Blowing, shaping, reheating, and cooling, Dane has become a master at turning magma-like glass into objects of stunning beauty that have been on display in his gallery on Centre Street for over twenty years. Now this August, he and several other nationally renowned artists will be heating things up at a free glass exhibition to benefit the Nantucket Boys and Girls Club. As part of the Corning Museum of Glass Hot Glass Roadshow, “Hot Glass Nantucket 2016” will take place on the Boys and Girls Club field for three days in August. Working on a mobile stage equipped with a fully functioning furnace and tools, Dane and his fellow artists will walk audiences through the glass shaping process. “This is a 2,000-year-old tradition and art form,” Dane says. “At some point someone figured out how to melt glass and developed shaping techniques that we still use today.” Dane’s own roots in glass shaping stem back to the mid-1960s when there was a 20th century revival in

hile most art forms allow for an extended solitary creation process, glass shaping often requires working in teams to quickly achieve a fine, finished product while the material is still pliable. “You want to get the glass to the texture of honey,” Dane explains. “Some pieces take five minutes while more elaborate pieces can take all day.” Over the years, Dane and his wife and partner Jayne have come to represent thirty-five of the most prominent glass artists in the world, two of whom will be joining him on stage this August. Toots Zynsky is a well-known luminary who has worked alongside such legendary glassworkers as Dale Chihuly, while Raven Skyriver is regarded as one of the most exciting, emerging artists today. Together they will shape imaginative pieces of art, one of which will be designed by a child in the audience as part of the “You Design It, We Make It” portion of the program. This will mark the second time the Hot Glass Road Show has made a stop on Nantucket. Dane first brought the show to the island in 2012 and raised around $70,000 for the Nantucket Boys and Girls Club. “We chose to partner with the Nantucket Boys and Girls Club because of the important role they play in support of the yearround Nantucket community,” says Dane. “They provide an immensely valuable service by helping to develop positive, well-rounded young people. They also provide a safe learning environment for children whose parents are working full time in order to raise their family on Nantucket. Thanks to our generous supporters, Hot Glass Nantucket 2016 is free to the public, and will be both an

ness. She later created an internet startup called the Wedding List, which she sold to Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia in 2001. That led to her becoming the CEO of Best & Co, the children’s division of Tommy Hilfiger. Now she’s the founder and CEO of Beautycounter, a natural beauty company that is on pace to sell six million products this year and is projected to generate an estimated $150 million in sales nationally, according to Fast Company. Renfrew is both passionate about her mission
to clean up cosmetics and at the same time is redefining how skin products are made and marketed. With a new satellite store on Old South Wharf and her headquarters in California, Renfrew has taken the fight to rid American products of toxins all the way to Washington, DC where, this past

have to sacrifice health or values for beauty,” Foley says. “At Follain, we love powerful beauty products and know that the ingredients in these products can be seriously helpful, or harmful, to our bodies and planet, especially after years of use. We want to help others avoid the harmful, toxic ingredients found in most beauty products, and instead choose safe and effective options.” Foley and Renfrew offer carefully-curated products to keep your skin healthy and protected this summer. So what are the must-haves for your beach bag? The first thing, as you may have guessed, is sunscreen. But there won’t be any zinc-colored noses here. “You can still have a high amount of zinc, but it’s what it’s balanced out with that makes it not as white and pasty,” Foley says. She recommends a brand called Josh Rosebrook SPF Nutrient Day Cream ($85), a light and breathable formula that’s perfect for everyday use. At Beautycounter, Renfrew recommends Protect Stick Sunscreen SPF 30 ($18 for small, $34 for large), which is small enough to fit into your pocket and perfect for easy application directly on noses and cheeks while leaving hands clean and dry.
In the event of a sunburn, Beautycounter’s Lustro Soothing Face Oil ($68) is a calming oil that alleviates redness and irritation. Or try Follain’s Farmaesthetics Herbal Hydration Mask ($50). Loaded with cooling peppermint and essential oils, it’s a formula meant to both moisturize and reduce inflammation. Even off Nantucket, you can also fake that beach glow with Follain’s SUNTEGRITY Self Tanner ($36), an all-natural tanning formula that never streaks and offers just a little bit of that natural bronze look. Meanwhile Beautycounter’s Sea Salt Spray ($26) will give your hair a sexy, wavy look that comes from a day in the ocean. “Exfoliating a few times a week just to renew your skin is really nice,” says Beautycounter’s Head of Innovation, Christy Coleman, who recommends using the Lustro Sugar Scrub ($40), a brown sugar formula that smells delicious enough to eat. Foley echoes this advice: “Body scrubs have a lot of oil in them, so when you get out of the shower you will feel like you applied lotion already.” At Follain, she recommends the Indie Lee Coconut Citrus Scrub ($38).

ADVENTURE
CAPITAL WRITTEN BY ROBERT COCUZZO
PHOTOGRAPHY BY BRIAN SAGER
A new tech start-up is going global with local guiding operations. There’s no Yelp or Angie’s List for charter fishing captains or surf instructors. And that’s exactly what James Hamilton was thinking when he founded GuideHire, an online network that connects outdoor enthusiasts with experts in their field, in the field. Whether catching a wave at Cisco, landing a striper off Great Point, or discovering secret trails in the Moors, having a knowledgeable guide by your side can make all the difference. Yet hiring the right person to lead you on these memorable Nantucket adventures can be as elusive as finding an honest mechanic. “There are tons of opportunities to experience the island hands-on—that’s where we come into play,” the twenty-six-year-old says while rigging his fly-fishing rod on Jetties Beach. “The guides, outfitters and instructors that we work with are extremely

knowledgeable and can connect you with the island’s environment in profound ways.”

aking a page out of online booking agencies like Open Table, Hamilton and his partners MacGill Davis and longtime Nantucket summer resident Alex Shukis created a digital network devoted exclusively to guides and outfitters. People log on to their site, type in the desired location and activity, and GuideHire connects them with the best guides in the region. When a booking is made, GuideHire makes a small percentage. The company quickly caught the right attention. Within a month of launching, GuideHire was dubbed by Outside Magazine as Uber for accessing the outdoors. “Your first instinct when looking for a guide is a Google search, but with today’s paid online advertising, it’s hard to tell who is actually great at what they do,” Hamilton says. “That’s the problem we’re trying to fix.

The idea is that the cream of the crop will rise to the top based on its own merit through our review system.”

Here on Nantucket, GuideHire represents Sankaty Head Charters, Next Level Watersports, ACK Surf School, Topspin Fishing, Bill Fisher Outfitters, District Surfboards, and local captains Matt Reinemo, Sam Herrick, and Hal Herrick.

I he Outdoor Recreation Sector is the third largest in consumer spending, netting $646 billion a year. Of that, more than $1 billion is spent exclusively on guides. In other words, there’s plenty of room for GuideHire to grow. Beyond Nantucket, outposts have already sprung up in Charleston, South Carolina, the Florida Keys and the Caribbean. “Generally speaking, we focus on a northeastern clientele,” says Hamilton. “So the majority of our three-hundredplus guides and outfitters are in this region.” GuideHire is following the start-up model created by many a Silicon Valley scion in which social networks and phone apps are sold off in multi-billion dollar paydays. Thus, one might wonder if these three budding outdoor entrepreneurs are only building their dream job to kill the company and cash in? “Whenever a company is enabled by technology, people tend to think that the end goal is an acquisition,” says Hamilton. “Our end goal is to help get more people outside and keep doing it for as long as we can.” So the next time you want to head out in the

EDELMAN INTERVIEW BY ROBERT COCUZZO
PHOTOGRAPHY BY CHIUN-KAI SHIH
Patriots star receiver catches some R&R on Nantucket You’d be hard-pressed to find a more electrifying player in the National Football League than Patriots star receiver Julian Edelman. At just 5’10” and 198 pounds, Edelman epitomizes the kind of gritty, underdog athletes that New Englanders have come to love. Squeezing out clutch first downs and making miraculous catches when the game is on the line, Edelman has become Tom Brady’s most trusted target. Rewind to the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XLIX when the Patriots were down by ten with eleven minutes to play to see why they call him “Incredible-man.” On third and long, Edelman exploded off the line, made a catch down the middle, took a bone-rattling hit, and then stayed on his feet for the first down. Nine minutes later, he caught the game-winning touchdown and cemented his legacy in New England sports lore. Although he says hard work is his MO, even Edelman takes some R&R in the offseason, which brought him to Nantucket earlier this summer. On Memorial Day weekend, he made a widely publicized trip to the island with none other than fellow Patriots receiver Rob Gronkowski. N Magazine spoke with Julian Edelman just before the final ruling was made on Tom Brady’s Deflategate appeal. Given the situation’s controversial nature, Edelman opted not to discuss Brady’s case or the future of his season, but rather shared his thoughts on the island, his career as a Patriot, and what it takes to make it to the pros.

Ou t o f Th i s Wor ld INTERVIEW BY ROBERT COCUZZO
Before heading back to space, NASA astronaut Andrew Feustel is scheduled to land on Nantucket this August Even for a man who’s looked down upon the enormity of Earth from space, the tiny island of Nantucket holds a particularly large part of Andrew Feustel’s heart. “My wife and I were engaged on Madaket Beach way back in 1989,” the NASA astronaut says. “I promised her that we would return after five years, but it actually took us about twenty-five to come back.” Last summer, the Feustels touched down on the island for the first time since their beachside engagement. Now, they’re slated to return this August during which time Andrew will give a presentation about space at the Dreamland Theater.
N magazine *This photo was created using stock photography. All other images in this story are actual photos taken of Andrew Feustel on his various space missions.

Feustel has been to space two times as a NASA astronaut, once performing space walks to repair the Hubble Telescope and another visiting the International Space Station. He’s become an important face for NASA, even partnering up with Matt Damon when the actor was promoting his blockbuster film, The Martian. Today Andrew Feustel is training for yet another space mission, this time for a six-month stay on the International Space Station.

N MAGAZINE: What are your thoughts on people like Elon Musk who have taken that mission into their own hands with privatized space travel? FEUSTEL: I believe that as a species we will one day have a permanent presence in space. Elon Musk is pushing the boundaries that hold us to Earth, and I believe his work is inevitable. N MAGAZINE: On that front, Mars is on everyone’s minds. FEUSTEL: Mars seems like the next practical step. We have some hurdles to jump before getting there, but achieving that goal will be worth the effort in the long run. N MAGAZINE: You’re currently training for this mission in Russia; what does a typical day of training consist of? FEUSTEL: Each day here, and back in Houston, is a lot like being in university. We are scheduled together as a crew each day with multiple classroom and simulator sessions that cover all of the critical systems and operations on the ISS. In fact, the training is equivalent to what you might receive to achieve a master’s degree. I will train for nearly twenty-two months in preparation for our six-month expedition to the space station.

N MAGAZINE: Tell us about your first mission to space. FEUSTEL: Working on the Hubble Space Telescope during the STS-125 mission was my first experience in space. That will be one of the most significant events in my entire lifetime. It is difficult to explain the pride and amazement that I feel each and every time I see an image from deep space that was acquired by the telescope, knowing that I was so fortunate to be able to help ensure that the telescope would continue to unlock more of the secrets of the universe. N MAGAZINE: What’s it like living in space? FEUSTEL: What I can say is that I don’t really know yet what it is like to actually live in space. My previous missions were thirteen and sixteen days long, respectively. Once I arrive for the six-month mission in early 2018, I will really start to appreciate what it means to live in space. N MAGAZINE: What do most people not know about being an astronaut? FEUSTEL: Well, I can tell you what I did not know was that most astronauts go on to other careers after flying in space. I was under the impression that once someone became selected as an astronaut, that they would continue to do that work until retirement. N MAGAZINE: What do you remember most when you returned home from your first trip to space? FEUSTEL: There is nothing quite like the smell of dirt…something that as of now we cannot experience in space. For me, once the hatch door was open to the shuttle I could smell Earth, and in my mind, I could immediately see the beauty of the planet, even though I was still sitting inside the shuttle. N MAGAZINE: What’s it like seeing earth from space? FEUSTEL:
If the whole world could
see Earth from space, I believe we would all behave somewhat differently here on the planet. I think we would be kinder to one another and I believe we would all be humbled.

N MAGAZINE: Space travel is clearly dangerous; have you ever had a close calls in space? FEUSTEL: I would not say space travel is “clearly” dangerous, however it is not without risk. Our job is to reduce and manage that risk to the best of our abilities. Each of us has, at one time or another, had a moment when we realized that we had better pay attention to the situation. I’ve experienced at least one of those moments during a spacewalk when my hand-grip was not quite what I had hoped. Fortunately, I am still here today to answer these questions. N MAGAZINE: When you’ve been up in space, have you ever seen things that make you wonder whether we are not alone? FEUSTEL:
I think floating above the

back-drop of the deep black space would cause anybody to wonder if we were really alone. The building blocks for life abound in our universe so to me, there is no way that we are alone. And no, I have never seen an alien in space. N MAGAZINE: When you’re reentering the atmosphere, and the shuttle is hitting ungodly temperatures, do you fear that the machine is going to burn up? FEUSTEL: No. You trust the equipment and rely on your training to get you through. In the end, however, all you can do is go along for the ride… At press time, Andrew Feustel was scheduled to deliver a presentation at The Nantucket Dreamland on August 12 in collaboration with N Magazine and the Maria Mitchell Association.

HAMILL
At the age of nineteen, a shy figure skater from Connecticut dazzled the world with her effortless grace, her cute bob haircut and her signature spin, “The Hamill Camel.” Winning gold in the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria made Dorothy Hamill a household name, America’s Sweetheart and the future face of figure skating. “[When I competed] it

wasn’t about money or fame; the Olym-

pics were the focus,” Hamill says today. “All the other things I was able to do afterwards was a bonus. I never dreamt I would have television specials or commercials.” She never dreamt she’d have a house on Nantucket.
Nine years ago, Hamill and her husband John purchased a home on Orange Street. Today they split their time between Nantucket and California. Although her days of competitive figure skating are over, Hamill still occasionally takes the ice here on Nantucket. “The quality of the ice here is so smooth, it’s like glass,” she says. “Maybe it’s the quality of the water, but the manager, Bob Pickney, does an amazing job and really cares for it.” Dorothy Hamill has been an inspiration to many, both on and off the ice. Shortly after purchasing her home on the island, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. After beating the disease—she’s been cancerfree for six years—Hamill helped found the national BeWisER+ About Breast Cancer campaign, empowering and educating women around the world. So it is that now, forty years after her gold medal, Dorothy Hamill still continues to shine.

PERRY The son of an All-American guard at the US Naval Academy, Lyman Perry enrolled at his father’s alma mater in 1956 planning on throwing a football, but he ended up rowing an oar instead. Despite being the smallest man in his boat at 6’2”, Perry served as the team’s stroke, rowing at the stern and setting a scorching pace for the seven other rowers. After winning the International Collegiate Regatta, Perry and his team dominated the Olympic trials on Lake Onondaga, besting their opponents by one of the largest margins in trials history. The win propelled them to the summer games in Rome along with the likes of Cassius

PHOTO BY TERRY POMMETT Beyond the boat, Lyman Perry has spent more than fifty years on Nantucket where he’s designed some two hundred homes and buildings as an award-winning architect. Until last year, he was still launching his shell into Nantucket Harbor for a morning row. “Rowing is a Zen experience,” he says. “But if you rowed like most of us did back then, it’s not as easy as it looks.”
“Marching into that stadium…it’s the thrill of your life to be representing your country,” Perry says today. “When I rowed, it was the height of the Cold War, but we were slapping the backs of Russians and Germans. We had a wonderful time. You never would have known that there were any animosities going on in the world.” Although he and his crew came short of medaling in the Rome Olympics, Perry went on to have a prolific rowing career, competing in over fifteen countries, winning gold of the most famous regattas in the United States called the Head of the Schuylkill.

DUPREE It wasn’t until his freshmen year at Columbia University that longtime Nantucket summer resident Jed Dupree decided to take a stab at going to the Olympics. Since the age of six, he had lived his life on the edge of a fencing foil. Everyday after school his mother would drive him two hours from their hometown of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, to a training facility in New York City to fence under top coaches. By his junior year of college, Dupree was a NCAA Champion, a National Champion and well on his way to the Olympics in Athens. “You spend so long training for this moment and then all of a

Dupree says of competing in the summer games. “You can train forever, but you can’t really prepare yourself for stepping out into the arena to do what you have been imagining for so many years.” Although starting the Olympics by winning a massive upset, defeating top-ranked Germany in the first round, Dupree and his team came just four touches short of the bronze medal. “We lost to Russia, but we were proud of coming that far,” he says. “I have nothing but positive feelings for the entire experience.” Dupree returned to the Beyond the thrill of competing on the highest stage in sports, Dupree says he was most taken by the international camaraderie of the games. “I was coming across people that I never would have had contact with, a community of people that were super excited to be there and wanted to share their story with you,” he remembers. “After competing I felt more like a citizen of the world than just a representative of the United States.”

MLECZKO
When Nantucket-native AJ Mleczko boarded her flight to Nagano, Japan in the winter of 1998, gold was the only color on her mind. It was the first year that women’s hockey had been played in the history of the games, so Mleczko and her twenty fellow teammates had no idea what to expect. “I remember walking out of this tunnel in Japan, and it was just so overwhelming,” Mleczko says today. “The opening ceremonies was one of the most quintessential Olympic moments. All of team USA, every athlete dressed identically, marching in and representing our country—even just talking about it now gives me chills.” Ranked number two behind Canada, the US women’s hockey team went on to dominate the games, in some cases winning by up to ten goals. They defeated Canada twice to claim gold. Returning to the States, Mleczko continued her decorated career in hockey as Harvard’s co-captain. She led the Crimson to a slew of championships and racked up six records, including number one in all-time single season points. Three years later, Mleczko returned to the Olympics and collected a silver medal. She was inducted into the New England Women’s Ice Hockey Hall of Fame in 2002 and then Harvard’s Hall of Fame twelve years later. But of all her awards and recognitions, winning gold is her most treasured. “I’ve been to the last three winter Olympics as a broadcaster, “The Olympics is a sporting event that brings the world together, unlike any other. You can have other sporting events, but they don’t capture the world’s imagination like the Olympics.”

and I think that the Olympic spirit is alive and well,” Mleczko says today.

At the age of two, Misha Petkevich slipped on a pair of skates for the first time. “I was pigeon-toed when I was little,” he explains today, “and my pediatrician put me on skates to help open up my hips.” Growing up in Great Falls, Montana, Petkevich dreamed of becoming a cowboy, not a figure skater—certainly not an Olympian. But a chance encounter with a renowned coach from Canada named Arthur Bourke changed all that. “He saw me skate and said, ‘If you really work hard, I think you could go to the Olympics.’” Four years later, Petkevich did just that. He was seventeen.
MISHA PETKEVICH
“What was truly remarkable about my first Olympics in 1968 was the camaraderie amongst the athletes from many different countries,” Petkevich remembers. “We’re all reading in the newspapers about conflicts, debates and disagreements on an international basis, but once you got to the Olympics and all the athletes were together, we were all friends, we were all colleagues, we were all comrades.”
N magazine
Petkevich placed sixth and fifth in the 1968 and 1972 Olympics respectively and became one of the most innovative and celebrated skaters of a generation. But that was just the first chapter in his life. After hanging up his blades, Petkevich went on to become a Rhodes Scholar, a fellow in Harvard’s Music Department, a composer in residence at Harvard’s Eliot House, the author of two books, a figure skating television analyst and the founder and CEO of several successful financial companies. Along the way, he and his wife also discovered Nantucket, and today they’ve owned a summer home on the island for more than twenty years.

Island Epidemic WRITTEN BY JASON GRAZIADEI
Investigating the opioid crisis on Nantucket
N magazine This is a stock photograph not taken on Nantucket.
147
n the eve of summer 2015, a Nantucket police officer heard a report come in over his radio, activated the emergency lights on his cruiser and raced to Dead Horse Valley. The secluded area next to Mill Hill park is best known as a popular sledding spot for kids during the winter months, but on this day, the officer arrived to find a twenty-three-year-old man laying unresponsive on the ground. Another man stood over the body, attempting chest compressions. A construction van was parked nearby, close to the syringe officers would later find in the tall grass.
The young man, a former student athlete at Nantucket High School, was administered a dose of Narcan to halt the effects of the heroin coursing through his veins and was taken by stretcher to Nantucket Cottage Hospital only a few hundred yards away. Just days later, police were called to a residence on Skyline Drive. They were flagged down by a young man on the street who escorted the officers into the basement of a home—his only request was that the policemen should be quiet so they wouldn’t wake his parents. In the basement they discovered a trail of blood leading to the body of a twenty-four-year-old man on the ground. Completely unresponsive, the man’s lips were blue and his eyes were left open. It took three doses of Narcan to bring him back from the brink of a heroin overdose. Only a week passed before island police were dispatched to a home on Vestal Street for another possible overdose. Officers and EMTs entered the residence and found a man kneeling over his son, shaking him and telling him to wake up. The twenty-one-year-old man was lying naked on the floor, gasping, with white foam coming from his mouth. The EMTs administered two doses of Narcan before transporting the man to the hospital. The three overdoses in quick succession last June, while by no means the first instances of opioid abuse on the island, were a harbinger of things to come. Over the past year on Nantucket, these scenes

He can be incredibly kind and thoughtful and gentle.

TRUMP: No one has a free thought. No one has an original thought. It’s so obvious that they can’t think for themselves. There’s a reason that Hillary Clinton hasn’t given a press conference in 220 days. You ask a question that’s actually difficult, and they don’t have time to prepare their stuff and practice it and have four hundred people in an office run computer data analytics to make sure it’s the exact message you want her to say. It doesn’t work, and so I think we need an element of genuineness in our politicians…We can’t run a country trying to scrub every possible thought so as not to offend the this nation.

on Beery and Jacob Hoefler have kiteboarded in some of the most ridiculous places. They’ve coasted under the Golden Gate Bridge, dodged lobster traps in Boston Harbor, and even ripped around a water hazard on the LPGA Tour. But of all the exotic and not-so-exotic waters they’ve hit, none compare to Nantucket’s when it comes to kiteboarding. Discovering this, the two twenty-somethings recently launched the island’s first kiteboarding operation ever approved by the board of selectmen. Beery and Hoefler’s Next Level Watersports has quickly taken off. Equipped with top-of-the-line gear and a fleet of chase boats, Next Level offers a “white-glove” introduction into the extreme world of kiteboarding. Beery and Hoefler have spent years perfecting how they teach beginners to harness the wind and ride on water. “I’ve taught people as old as eighty-seven and as young as eight,” says Beery, who gave up his job in corporate America to pursue kiteboarding full-time. “It’s easier than you would think, and our favorite is when we can get the whole family—wife, husband and kids—out there riding together.” Over the course of three-hour sessions, Beery and Hoefler walk students through the techniques in managing a kite and then riding on water. “It’s really two sports in one,” says Hoefler. “When we teach people, our focus is to slow it down and provide instruction in an incremental and methodical manner. That way we can keep our students in control and feeling comfortable throughout.”

n the early days of kiteboarding, there were horror stories of people being slammed into the sides of boats, tangled in the lines, or lifted hundreds of feet in the air. Since then, safety has significantly improved, but the sport still requires a knowledgeable instructor. “People can get in trouble when they just go out and buy the gear and try to wing it,” Beery says. “It’s important to respect the sport and get proper instruction to learn how to do it safely.” Once students learn to harness the wind and then make the move into the water, Beery and Hoefler follow them along in small chase boats to yell pieces of advice and keep them safe. “Our job is to educate, pace and motivate,” says Beery. “Of course, safety is our top priority.” Beyond safety, improved kiteboarding technology allows Beery and Hoefler to take students out on the water nearly every day, whether the wind is blowing or not. In particular, state-of-the-art hydrofoil boards enable a kiteboard to surf through the water without ever touching the surface. Instead, a long, specially designed fin cuts through the water, riding the currents below. Free from friction, kiteboarders

can then get pulled by the lightest of breezes. And there are ample places around the island to explore. “The variety of kiting here is some of the best we’ve experienced on the East Coast,” Hoefler says. “There is a bit of everything. You can ride waves off the south shore, rip over buttery flats in Madaket and Bass Point and hydrofoil for miles on the harbor.” But when you’re learning with Next Level, everything takes place in the relative safety of the harbor. Once you learn to kite on your own, however, you can go wherever the wind takes

MUTUAL FRIEND INTERVIEW BY BRUCE A. PERCELAY
PHOTOGRAPHY BY KIT NOBLE
PUTNAM INVESTMENTS CEO TALKS ABOUT BREXIT, THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION & DEFLATEGATE.
Bob Reynolds is the chairman of Putnam Investments, one of the nation’s largest mutual funds, which manages over $147 billion. Prior to taking over Putnam, Reynolds was the president of Fidelity Investments. He and his family have been summer residents of the island for many years. They are active in numerous local nonprofits such as Nantucket Historical Association and the Nantucket Cottage Hospital and serve on the boards after the Brexit vote for a wide-ranging conversation.

hroughout his fifty years in golf course design, Tom Fazio and his staff of designers have been recognized for creating award-winning courses throughout the United States. No living designer has more credits on Golf Digest’s list of America’s 100 Greatest Golf Courses and Golfweek’s collection of America’s Best. On Friday, August 5th at 6 P.M, Fazio will be appearing at the Whaling Museum as part of the new Nantucket by Design week of events. N Magazine spoke to Fazio prior to his visit to the island.
N MAGAZINE: How did you first start in golf course design? FAZIO: I came to the industry in a roundabout way and entirely due to family. I grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia in Norristown, and in the 1940s and 1950s my uncle, George Fazio, was a pretty successful and accomplished professional golfer. The most notable moment was his showdown with Ben Hogan and eventual runner-up finish in the 1950 U.S. Open at Merion Golf Club. As his career was winding down going into the 1960s, George purchased a golf course and many Fazios, including myself, ended up working at the golf course performing the day-to-day operations and upkeep of the course.
N MAGAZINE: What design elements do you consider your trademark to your courses?
FAZIO: It may sound cliché, but I endeavor in each project to be as unique as I can with regard to design style or visual influence. If I am successful at that, then my courses should never be labeled as having typical “Fazio” features. In my mind, simply repeating or creating slight variations of what I (or other designers) have done in the past would be a disservice to our clients who hire us to create a one-of-a kind masterpiece for them.
N MAGAZINE: What do you think would be the biggest challenge in designing a course on an island like Nantucket?
FAZIO: Working on Nantucket would be a pleasure and rare opportunity. I don’t see any real obstacles that couldn’t be overcome as long as we work with the various regulatory agencies and develop a design that meets and/or exceeds the requirements that would be placed on the project. Working on Nantucket would undoubtedly afford us the chance to create something very special in keeping with the incredible natural beauty of the island.
N MAGAZINE: What is your favorite golf course that you didn’t design, and why? FAZIO: I could name quite a few, but if I had to pick one it would be Pine Valley Golf Club in New Jersey. Pine Valley is often ranked as the #1 course in America, but more than that, Pine Valley has a special place in my history. When my uncle George was playing professional golf, only a handful of the top players could earn enough playing to be full-time

players. Prize money back then was nothing like it is today. As such,
186
many players would often hold a paying position at golf clubs and “play out of” those courses. They would work part time at the courses and augment their income from tournament play. George just happened to be connected in this way to Pine Valley and I was introduced to that venue at an early age. It is a special place and the golf course is second to none.

Mike (left) and Alex Faherty
THE BROTHERS BEHIND FAHERTY Q & A with twins Mike and Alex Faherty about their namesake brand, and how they’re enjoying island life after the opening of their new Nantucket store in May. How’d Faherty get started? MF: From a young age I was always interested in clothing. Growing up in a beach town my options were pretty limited. I wanted to buy the clothes at the local surf shop but never felt like the quality was that great. I was on a never ending search for high quality clothing that reflected my lifestyle. Eventually I decided I would someday create the brand I always wanted. I even wrote my college essay on it. After college I was lucky to land a design job under Ralph Lauren where I spent eight years learning all I could about design and building a clothing brand. AF: I'm focused on running the business side of Faherty. I've always been the "numbers" twin. When we were teenagers, Mike and I would talk about creating a company together. After graduation from Yale, I worked in Private Equity for seven years, which allowed me to gain the skillset to build a business from the ground up. I focus on making sure Faherty has a stable foundation so that Mike is free to express his creative vision.
Complete the sentence, “The Faherty Brand is…”
Why did you decide to open more retail locations?
MF: Made for life’s great moments, whether that is catching waves or hanging around a bonfire with friends. This brand is an extension of our family barbecues, long days spent by the water, and the casual laidback vibe we grew up with.
AF: After opening our first store in SoHo, New York in 2014 and having great success we knew that more locations were in our expansion plan. The decision to open a new store is similar to that of buying a second home--we want it to be in a location where we love spending time. We are excited that we got to open two amazing stores this summer in Nantucket and Malibu, California.
Name the Faherty essential for men. MF: Our All Day Short is the only short you need. It has the look of a flat front chino short with all the technical features of a swimsuit. AF: We have this awesome polo that is made from a super-soft indigo dyed jersey. It takes you from days spent at the beach to a night out and only gets better with time. And the Faherty essential for women? AF: A bikini crafted in one of our unique prints. Even better, they are made in a sustainable fabric that we developed which uses recycled plastic bottles. MF: Our Baja ponchos have become a signature item. Crafted in super-soft brushed cotton, each print is inspired by vintage Native American weavings. They are the perfect alternative to a regular sweatshirt to throw-on when it gets a little cool out.
FAHERTY-NANTUCKET 0 Candle Street, Nantucket, MA
Showcasing Faherty's men's and women's clothing and swimwear, as well as a curated selection of shoes, accessories, and beach essentials.
When location hunting, why Nantucket? MF: As young kids we took our first family trip to Nantucket and ever since it's been one of our favorite places to visit. The charm and laid-back vibe of the island always inspires me. The opening of our own shop here is a dream come true. What’s a day in Nantucket look like for you guys? AF: If the waves are decent, we'll start off with a good surf session. Post-surf we’ll head over to Handlebar for an iced coffee and then to our shop for the day. MF: After we close up, we'll shoot over to Cisco Brewery for a couple of beers and some live music. At night we head to Straight Wharf where our friend Tim works, grab a spot at the bar and order a bunch of the mini tuna tacos.
For more about Faherty’s story and products, visit www.fahertybrand.com
MOBILE BEACH HOUSE AT BARTLETT’S FARM, 6/29-8/7 Faherty’s mobile store that travels from city to city was custom designed using recycled barnwood and is complete with its own stereo system, sky light, and pop-up fitting rooms. For the third summer in a row, Faherty is partnering with fellow family-run business Bartlett’s. Swing by the Farm to browse a great selection of clothing and swimwear while buying your heirloom vegetables and fresh flowers.
