PART OF THE CLUB
Algeo docks his boat at the BALBOA YACHT CLUB , where the family has been members since 2016 . “ We love to go boating in the harbor , going down to Emerald Bay [ in Laguna Beach ] and anchoring there for the day with friends or the kids ,” Algeo says . “… And for the [ Pacific ] Airshow in Huntington Beach , we take our boat out and there ’ s an area for boats to anchor where the planes go right over you as you ’ re sitting out on the water . I just think that experience is second to none .”

LOCAL VIEWS
“ Another aspect that my wife and I enjoy about Newport is the walkability ,” Algeo notes . “ We live in the PORT STREETS and love taking our walks around this neighborhood . And we used to live on BALBOA ISLAND and loved whenever we could take the 2 ½-mile walk around the island and just see what ’ s going on .” NBM
