During the 2024 Parade of Sails, Stephanie was rowing the dory respectfully around the schooners.   Stephanie’s face shows the enjoyment of being out in the water.

Schooner Festival 2024

On Sunday the parade of sails was incredible.  It was actually emotional watching the schooners sailing around our beautiful Gloucester Harbor.  Thank you again to the committee who put this wonderful event every year.

From Saturday

Rick and I went on the beautiful Lannon yesterday.  When on this schooner you feel like you have no worries and just never want to get off.  Thank you The Lannon and crew for a great sail.
