[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3393568, member: 10465"] I have made plans to carry on with life and a vacation as best I can. I'm going sailing in Maine for a week on the Windjammer [I]Stephen Taber[/I] in September. The [I]Taber [/I]is the oldest continuously sailing vessel in the US; she was launched in 1871! She is a wooden, two-masted Schooner, 68 ft. length on deck with a beam of 23.5 ft. The [I]Taber [/I]has a crew of four and can accommodate 20 passengers. My late wife saw on TV that Rachel Ray, the TV Chef, had taken her vacation aboard the [I]Taber [/I]and how she raved about the sail and the food too! Every meal and even the breads are prepared on a vintage wood burning stove in the galley. She sails the waters of Penobscot Bay off the Maine coast without the aid of an engine; she's totally powered by the wind. The particular trip I'm going on is called "The Great Schooner Race" - we'll culminate a week on the water with the largest gathering of tall ships in North America and have a race; a race the [I]Stephen Taber [/I]won last year. She is one of 8 sailing vessels in The Maine Windjammer Association, they sail from their home ports in Rockland and nearby Camden, Maine. I'm flying in to spend a few days in Rockland/Camden before I board and sail on the [I]Taber, [/I]and then another few days afterwards Ill spend in Portland, Maine. I'll be in Maine for a total of 11 relaxing days. It is going to be great!
