New Bedford Whaling Museum Sail

August 20, 2004
With a steel drum, standup bass and drums up forward and great food provided by a caterer midships, we set sail for the evening out into the fog. What an absolutely enjoyable sail!

The foresail drove the ship ghosting along in gathering fog. The fog grew thick by Butlers Flat. Ernestina was passed by the departing schooner Alabama before we turned back toward the dock in gathering dusk.

President of the NB Whaling Museum, Albert Lees, hauls away with the crew to raise the fores'l.

Everyone settled in for an enjoyable evening.

Off the wind under the fores'l..
