I apologize if the introduction to the February newsletter was unclear; this newsletter is addressed to both those of you who have sailed aboard before and also you who have asked to be on the subscription list.  These little updates are to keep you just that:  current on the doings here at the harbor's edge in Rockland where the American Eagle is berthed. 

 

Next month marks the beginning of outfitting, the thorough overhaul of hull and rig for another season.  Just as most lives are merely reactions to circumstances the content herein is in large part what you who have sailed aboard have sent along at one time or another.  If you've never come sailing, what are you waiting for?  There's plenty of room for both new and returning shipmates this year.

 

 

As for me I'm spending the rest of the month working on the barque Elissa in Galveston, Texas, as one of the mates.  She's an amazing vessel with a stellar volunteer crew.
