Chesapeake Inspirations

Last Summer and Fall I was living a dream and sailing on the Schooner "Mystic Whaler."  As a deckhand I lived on the ship full-time while carried myself and the rest of our small crew on many fantastic voyages.  The highlight of the season (for many schooners on the East Coast) was the Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race, a day and night dash from Baltimore to Portsmouth, Virginia. As the sun began to set the clouds looked grave and heavy but couldn't dim our collective enthusiasm for the long night of sailing ahead.
