Snapshots from an August morning, taken just after sunrise while watering the HarborWalk gardens. I am so swamped with work during the warmer months that I never got around to posting these.
Do you have a favorite Gloucester lobster boat? Two that come to mind immediately are the Stanley Thomas, painted in her classy red, white, and aqua blue, and the Degelyse, with her colorful orange flags. What’s yours?

Maritime Gloucester Sea Scouts news
Hi Joey,
Our troop of Sea Scouts just completed a sea survival course in Groton. I wonder if there’s anyway you can give them a shout out? I think they’re very proud of what they did (and had a lot of fun). What photos we have were taken with a cell phone so are not great, but they get the idea across (I’ve attached some here).
Here’s what we posted on our website about it:
Maritime Gloucester congratulates our North Shore Ship 5 Sea Scouts on completing the Sea Survival safety course at Survival Systems USA in Groton, CT. The course is designed to provide the knowledge and skills necessary to enable anyone to care for themselves in a sea survival situation.
While the skills around hypothermia mitigation were individually challenging and the group sea surface formations enlightening, the highlight of the event was the group raft rescue in simulated rough seas, complete with high gusty winds, lightening, helicopter sheer winds, deafening noises, and driving rain all assaulting the small raft in the dark. Apparently it’s not uncommon for participants to yell “Do it again!” when the simulation ends and they crawl out of the survival raft, all smiles, shaken but happy.
It would be great if you could include them in your posts, but I know you have a lot going on!
