The Summer Lecture Series continues with MFS Volunteer and former professor of European history and material culture (archaeology, art & architecture), Ted South. Ted's talk both introduces the archaeological dig at the Popham Colony site and provides background for next week's talk by Arthur Spiess of the Maine Historic Preservation Commission. Come join us this Wednesday, July 15.

Virginia with its tan bark sails is drawing large crowds. Meet our docents at the pier 6 sign and we will get you on board!
We are under full sail coming back into Boston Harbor for the Sail Boston Parade of Sail! Just passing Spectacle Island and coming in with Esmeralda and Tyrone!
Privileged positioning and the TV crew commented on how well you were moving!
Nice to see the old Tyrone once more. She was our favorite "pirate schooner" in Boothbay Harbor in the 1960s.
Passing us now
Beautiful
Love that you all get to be a part of this! Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Watched you sail into Boston from Bath, ME! Beautiful 1st ship!

Hi. Curious, is this a scaled version or proper full size?
All motor?
Looking forward to seeing her in Boston!
Congratulations! Wish I could have seen her. Did you need to use the engine at any time?
Welcome to Boston!
YES!
Awesome
She draws attention wherever she goes!On a sunset paddle in the kayak, I got a photo of Maine's First Ship Virginia, which is spending the night on its way to Boston for the Tall Ship parade.
Huzzah! A successful first leg on the way to SAILBOSTON. and her first 24-hour journey. Wishing fair winds and following seas to Virginia, Capt. J B Smith and her gallant crew!
