Wyanoke was the name of the summer camp my family operated in Winter Harbor (not a family 'camp', but a commercial business with 225 + campers and 75+ staff). We sold the island sometime before 1940.
Wow you paddled from Winter Harbor to Greene’s Basin?! You must have had Popeye arms! Very impressive.

Is it now Starr Island that your family owned?
