PBS Documentary Series Producers Visit Spirit of South Carolina

 This past weekend, the co-producers of the PBS Documentary Series, 'The Good Road", came aboard for a tour and information-gathering conversation with Acting-Captain, Charlie Porzelt, and Volunteer Coordinator Bryan Oliver.  The team was in Charleston scouting possible locations and topics for one or two episodes of the second series of "The Good Road" to be delivered on PBS stations possibly this coming Summer.   Check out this  Link to 'The Good Road" Series 2 Trailor for a description of the program.   

The producers expressed interest and asked tons of questions about the schooner's history, it's programs, and mission. At some point, schedules permitting, they hope to include footage of shipboard activities, and an actual sail.  That means we'll need a competent volunteer crew, to be ready when the ship completes repairs.
