We are underway on our final passage!
The visit to Lunenburg was great. Everyone toured the museum and enjoyed the shops and eateries in town. The Schooner Bluenose was in port some of the crew toured the boat and we enjoyed the company of MMA alum, Xander, who is sailing as 2nd Mate. Capt. Phil was envious of our voyage (Bluenose did a "powerboat" trip to Toronto via St. Lawrence River).
The barquentine Concordia returned around mid day with their "Class Afloat" program and crew tours took place both on Bowdoin and Concordia.
We are currently beating against a SW breeze heading for Cape Sable and our southern most point of the voyage. We are hoping for a wind shift of any kind to get a more favorable slant.
We are all well and looking forward to crossing the Bay of Fundy and returning to US waters.
Capt. Rick Miller
