BG's Boathouse restaurant, a Sagamore Creek staple, listed for $12.9M in Portsmouth

PORTSMOUTH — BG’s Boathouse , the Sagamore Creek seafood restaurant and pub operated by the Graves family for just shy of 50 seasons, has been listed for sale for $12.9 million. The business was opened in 1978 by Joanne Graves and her husband, former two-term Portsmouth Mayor Bruce Graves. The late founders' son and daughter-in-law, Jeff and Lori Graves, are the current second-generation owners of the waterfront family establishment, the Sagamore Pub and a 16-slip marina. Mary Beth Hixon and Tony Jalbert, realtors with Tate & Foss Sotheby’s International Realty, are the listing agents for the Portsmouth property. The Graves family is retiring from the business, according to Jalbert. “It’s been almost 50 years since they’ve had it,” Jalbert said in a Friday, Nov. 13, interview. “It’d be a good thing. It’s been a good run, great people.” BG’s completed its 49th season after the end of service Sunday, Oct. 18. The listing packages together the 158-seat restaurant and bar, the marina, a single-family home next to the main parking area, and a separate gravel parking lot across Wentworth Road spanning about 1.4 acres. The whole property has more than 360 feet of creek frontage. Will BG's Boathouse site remain

Family of man who died during Haverhill police struggle sues officers

The family of a man who died while being restrained by police in Haverhill, Massachusetts, last year has filed a federal civil lawsuit against the officers who were involved. The complaint, filed Monday, claims that the officers violated Francis Gigliotti's constitutional rights in the July 11, 2025, struggle that led to his death.

Democrats score big in New Hampshire: Splaine

Like many political addicts, I didn't get much sleep on election night. After voting at Portsmouth's New Franklin School, I went home, prepared a snack, and began watching television well into the morning, with more snacks periodically. I dozed off with the TV still on. Around 6 a.m., some loud cheers at yet another victory party woke me up, and the channel I was watching ran a summary of results nationwide. Then it came to me that darn it, I won't be getting that $5,000 . While the change in Congress is a political earthquake that hasn't been seen in Washington for decades, a similar flip for Democrats will hit our State House come December, and into the New Year. There's much good news for Democrats , and for democracy. For the first time in a decade, Democrats have strong majorities in both the N.H. House and Senate. They also took all five seats of the Executive Council, including newcomer Lisa Kennedy Sheldon of Portsmouth. That body controls many appointments to judgeships, state department head positions and budgetary spending approvals. The Senate has 15 Democrats to 9 Republicans, and Rebecca Perkins Kwoka will be Senate President. She brings three terms

N.H. football: Somersworth beats Monadnock, advances to DIII championship game

SOMERSWORTH – In a game where its vaunted run game was held in check, the Somersworth High School football team showed it can win in many different ways. The Hilltoppers rode an exceptional defensive effort to a 21-8 win over Monadnock in the Division III semifinals Saturday at Memorial Field. Second-seeded Somersworth (9-1) will face top-seeded Inter-Lakes/Moultonborough in the championship on Saturday, Nov. 21 at Bank of New Hampshire Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. Inter-Lakes advanced with a 42-22 win over No. 4 Campbell. Somersworth lost to Inter-Lakes, 35-30 on Sept. 11. After rushing for 444 yards in its playoff opener, Somersworth struggled to find running room against a stingy Monadnock (7-3) defense. But the Hilltoppers showed they are more than just a ground-and-pound team, as Max Ridings threw for a pair of touchdowns and the defense made sure that was all they would need. “That’s what makes this team a little different than teams in the past,” said Somersworth coach Jeremy Lambert. “Whatever we’ve had to lean on in a particular game, that group has stepped up. That’s a special group of kids right there.” The teams appeared headed for a repeat of their early-season shootout, when

SOMERSWORTH — In last Saturday's 50-21 Division III quarterfinal playoff win over Laconia , the Somersworth High School football team had three backs all run for more than 100 yards, and had a total of 444 yards in the game. Somersworth head coach Jeremy Lambert pointed to the guys on the offensive line, and said that the success of the running game starts with grit and tenacity. And more standout performances will be needed in Saturday's semifinal game against No. 3 Monadnock. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. in Somersworth. "We need our line to continue to be able to keep their heads up, and play with some grit and tenacity, that's what it takes to play on the line with your hand in the dirt," Lambert said. "Those guys need to keep doing what they're doing there. They're going to move some bodies and they have the ability to do that." Seniors Collin Patterson and Brian Bjorkman have been at it for four years, and they are paired with a trio of sophomores in Diante Adams, Cole Garrett and Evan Utgard. Bjorkman, at 6-foot-1, 250 pounds, is at left tackle; Patterson, at 6-foot-2, 240, is at left guard; Garrett,

Joseph Case girls volleyball punches ticket to the Final Four

SWANSEA — It never gets old reaching the Final Four for Madisyn Mendonca and the Joseph Case girls volleyball team. The senior libero captain and the No. 4 Cardinals held their collective breathe down the stretch as an early 2-0 lead quickly evaporated against No. 5 Newburyport in a rematch from last season's Elite 8 match. With the score 2-2 heading into the all-important fifth set, Mendonca's team regained their composure. "I was a little worried there because I did not want this to be my last game," said Mendonca after Case eliminated the Clippers, 3-2, in Friday's Division 3 quarterfinal match in a playoff atmosphere at Joseph Case High School. "We just kept pushing at the end and getting to every ball. I'm so proud of this team." Watch MA high school sports on NFHS With the win, the Cardinals (19-4) advanced to their fourth Final Four in the last five years. Case will play either No. 1 Bellingham or No. 8 Pembroke at a time and date to be determined. "Newburyport made us worked for everything tonight," Cardinals head coach Brendan Kelly said.
