It’s all for the good of Cape Ann, and it’s remarkable Maritime History! It stands apart as unique to American History, and if we really work together to leverage our history, it will be a great attraction to our sense of self, a boon to our tourist business and an asset to our economy. Art, history, ecology, technology – you name it, there an aspect of it in this very multi-dimensional story. Thank you, Kim!
