April 15: Barque Gunilla, and Harvey Gamage are in Port. Looks like makings of a Low Country Boil

 The Maine Schooner Harvey Gamage is currently working it's way around the Florida Peninsula, on it's way north to Charleston, due in on the 15th.  Just ahead of it is the Swedish Barque Gunilla, also coming this way to put in to Charleston on 13 April for a few days.  With us, that makes three Tall Ships together in the harbor.  a sight not seen since 2017. 

And good timing too!

Volunteers are overdue for a Celebration. Our past two Annual Volunteer Appreciation Nights have dropped with COVID, and then shipyard.  Now's a good time to make up for it, and include some fellow tall-shipmates. 

Sailing Vessel "Gunilla" out of Gothenburg, Sweden
Together with the crew of Harvey Gamage, we're planning a Low Country Boil dockside where Harvey Gamage will be rafted up to Spirit of South Carolina.   Gunilla will be at the fuel dock.  We're inviting their crew to join us. For you regulars, you'll see some familiar faces among Harvey Gamagers, and welcome some Swedish sailors to Charleston.  Our last soiree with Harvey Gamage two years ago was a huge success. They ended up pitching in on some of our maintenance projects.  

If you've set foot on deck in the past couple years,Gyou're invited.  If you plan on getting back involved, you're invited too.  We're celebrating us, and our commitment to our Schooner.

Look for an email from me in a day or so. or contact me at that space on right column of the blog.
