Ahoy, polloi! The Compo Yacht Club — Westport's "finest institution since 1920", founded the very week the taps ran dry — presents the clubhouse candle. The burgee that flies a martini where lesser clubs fly a star, port and starboard on an 11-ounce double-wick, poured like something that's been on the mantel since Coolidge.

Two scents, both drawn from the club's actual coordinates. Ocean Mist & Moss: the seawall at dawn, before the fog has made any decisions. White Tea & Fig: the clubhouse porch at four o'clock, when somebody's aunt is quietly running the bridge table. The Membership Committee has certified both as approved for burning during the off-season, when the six o'clock gun is on reduced hours.

Light it for the dinner party, the fogged-in Sunday, the three-hour tour of a good book — the double wick burns even and unhurried, like a member with nowhere better to be, which is the entire point of membership. Any port in a storm smells better with this going.

The hostess gift that arrives already explaining itself — for hosts, neighbors, teachers, boat owners, boat wanters, and any household whose yacht exists primarily in conversation. Completes the shelf next to the club coasters and rocks glass; the bar corner builds itself.

The fine print, read like a tide chart: 11oz double-wick soy-blend candle in full glass with wooden lid, poured in the USA. Trim wicks to ¼", never leave a burning candle unattended — the Commodore checks. Printed to order; profits support hunger relief.

 

Welcome aboard. Dues are one olive.
