Gloucester Schooner Festival, Schooner Ardelle, and a Tribute to David Short—From Pine to Palm, Ep 1

Описание: The Gloucester Schooner Festival is really something to behold. Many schooners come to race and to gam, which is what a gathering of them is called. Gamming, back in the day, was when two schooners spotted each other on their way to or from the fishing grounds on the Grand Banks. They would swap stories, news, and send mail with boats that were headed home.

In this video, Harold Burnham dons swim shorts to dive on his own propeller rather than sending crew, cuts the engine in tight quarters and allows Ardelle to carry through some fly bys of cool boats, and arranges for our group of guests to board the boat we just saw arrive at Gloucester. Learn about David Short and his legacy of boats and boat builders who will carry his knowledge and skills forward.
