We took a quick walk down to the docks in Chestertown where I finally got my first glimpse of the schooner Sultana. This is the Sultana, quiet and crewless. I cannot imagine what it must be like in foul weather, with sailors clambering over her decks, coiling lines, pulling and moving in unison. So much choreography in so tight a space!
The Sultana and the Pride of Baltimore will be hosting some public sails on April 30. http://www.sultanaprojects.org/
