in the schooners out of Camden, all the cooks are "centerboard" cooks. No..I am not going to explain that one..

how about a mini festival in Camden with some day sailing? there are boats to go out on for the day..? I'm not licensed to carry passengers, and a vessel big enough for all of us would probably not float. If we generate some real interest, I'll call Gordon and ask what is available.

Yes, I know a hell of a ghost ship story and its true. Called THE DEAD SHIP OF HARPSWELL by John Greenleef Whittier ...what flecks the outer gray beyond the sundowns golden trail? The white flash of a sea bird's wing, or gleam of slanting sail?

the crew was murdered by pirates in the Carribean, yet, she sailed home to Maine, the Captain, who was left to die tied to the mast, was put ashore by the ghosts of his crew who then disappeared into the fog. That ship was seen many time sailing into the harbor, only to vanish before making it in.
