So awesome. I'm so glad this so some of these going on out there. Son wants to go on a small sailboat just to be out there where he feels he belongs. Thank you for sharing

Had the honor of sailing on Taber back in ‘21 during her 150th. Found out later that my grandmother sailed on her back in ‘56. Heading back this year and having no regrets!

Yankee schooners were famous for a reason. Handy to windward, agile and fast.

The people in Maine are like the northern Germans: Taking their time... Love to you all frome here :)

Can anybody tell me the name of that building that was all by itself in the water? I'd like to learn more about it.

So you gotta have the slab jab to go sailing with them? If so, I hope you go broke.

no kidding.

however they didn't say it was a requirement. it was just her making a statement for the busy bodies.

hopefully his kid changes his mind. but he'll probably just grow up to be a gamer by night who works in some soulless dead end hamster wheel job..... like most kids.
