Rigging Underway
The Rigging and Fittings teams are working on getting yards and standing rigging ready for raising the yards in a couple weeks!
This Week at the Tall Ship Tent and Workshop
This week at the Tall Ship tent and workshop: rigging and fittings work progresses steadily, relaxation during daily crew lunch, some education with a great presentation on climate change in the arctic by David Thoreson, and Brad Bergman is loaning us a sewing machine, in anticipation of canvas work for Matthew Turner's interior and exterior.

Time Aloft
Randall Landaiche and Noah Limbach were the topmast crew on Dec 1st. Gorgeous sunny day, but after 4 hours aloft, they were a bit chilled.
Topmasts Are Up!

Big Day on the Waterfront
Friday's lunch was on the waterfront, a short break from raising the fore topmast. Thank you Margie for bringing the lunch, and all the volunteers for making it happen!
