Member Sail from New Bedford

We left at 1700 with 71 persons aboard for an evening sail. Members and guests joined us for a beautiful sunset cruise. We set four lower sails in the harbor and motorsailed out the entrance channel into the light SW breeze. Once we cleared Clarks Point, the engine was secured and we tacked back and forth in the calm waters.

We sailed in by Butlers Flat lighthouse and the hurricane barrier by 2000 and arrived back at the State Pier around 2015 in time to set up for the movie "Moby-Dick" alongside.

Captain: Willi Bank
Program Coordinator: Inette Rex

We would like to thank Lotus and IBM for donation of software, hardware and funding to enable regular electronic updates from the ship.
