From now until May 24th, we pick up speed until that day comes when we need to put our tools down and raise the sails for our first of many summer days out on Penobscot Bay sailing our Maine Windjammer.

Ian, our senior crew member this year, started right in on Monday sanding and painting blocks.  When the skies aren’t full of snow, he’s outside chopping and stacking wood for my hungry wood stove.  Thank you, Ian, and welcome back!

From now until we sail, our hugs will look like this…

Annie
It begins slowly, but before we know it we are zipping right along!
