Lock your doors and check your cameras — another Lock your doors and check your cameras — another porch pirate struck in The Point neighborhood, making off with a package in plain view of a front porch surveillance camera. The thief, caught on video Sunday night, casually walked up to the home and snatched the parcel before vanishing into the night like a ghost with Amazon Prime. A police report has been filed, and authorities are urging anyone who recognizes the man to contact the Newport Police Department at (401) 847-1306. The thief may have taken more than just someone’s package. He’s stolen peace of mind. Know him? Turn him in. #newportri #newportbuzz
Grand Banks and Palm Beach Motor Yachts have compl Grand Banks and Palm Beach Motor Yachts have completed the acquisition of Casey’s Marina at Spring Wharf, marking a major expansion of the luxury yacht brand’s footprint in the heart of Newport Harbor. The marina will be renamed the Grand Banks and Palm Beach Motor Yachts Marina, becoming the only brand-specific marina operated by a yacht builder in Newport’s main harbor. The deal also includes an adjacent 10,000-square-foot piece of Waites Wharf, further cementing the company’s long-term presence in the region. The acquisition builds on the company’s seasonal operations in Newport since 2018 and follows a recent expansion of its manufacturing facility to support new and upcoming yacht models. The move is designed to offer an enhanced ownership experience, combining harborfront access with luxury service and support. “This new home in Newport will allow us to elevate our owner experience and service capabilities in one of the most iconic boating destinations in the world,” said Mark Richards, CEO and chief designer. “This marina has been part of Newport’s waterfront for generations, and it means a lot to see it in the hands of a team that truly understands and respects its legacy,” said Bill Casey, former owner of Casey’s Marina. “Grand Banks and Palm Beach Motor Yachts have been part of this dock for years, and I’m proud to see them take it to the next level for the community and their owners.” The reimagined marina will offer reserved slips, haul-out services, a private lounge, guest amenities, and on-site service—all reflecting the high-end craftsmanship synonymous with the Grand Banks and Palm Beach brands. #newportri #newportbuzz
Indie rockers @illiteratelight are hitting the roa Indie rockers @illiteratelight are hitting the road in the most literal way possible — on bikes. The Harrisonburg, Virginia-based duo is teaming up with @newportfolkfest and climate nonprofit @11thhourracing to launch the Road to Newport, a 600-mile bike-powered tour with a purpose: push pedal-powered sustainability into the national spotlight. Starting July 7 at Pale Fire Brewing in their hometown, Jeff Gorman and Jake Cochran will pedal their way north, stopping for fan-powered shows at Baltimore’s Union Craft Brewing (July 13) and Danny Clinch’s Transparent Clinch Gallery in Asbury Park, NJ (July 18), before rolling into the sold-out Newport Folk Festival on July 26. There, they’ll once again unleash their now-legendary bike-powered stage — a fan-fueled rig that generates electricity from stationary bikes ridden by the audience. It’s more than a gimmick. The duo’s stage first debuted at Newport in 2022 with backing from 11th Hour Racing and quickly became a symbol of action — and a crowd favorite. This year, Illiterate Light is doubling down, merging performance art with climate advocacy by literally embodying the sustainable transportation they preach. The tour supports Newport Folk Festival’s growing green initiatives, including composting, water refill stations, and a booming bike valet system. Thanks in part to Illiterate Light’s visibility, nearly 20% of attendees are expected to arrive by bike this year. For Illiterate Light, the tour is about building a movement — not just a setlist. Follow their journey at #RoadToNewport. #newportfolkfest #newportbuzz #11thhourracing #newportri
