Just another day at Mystic Seaport — boats moving all over the waterfront.
In this case, it’s our own Joseph Conrad, on her way back to her regular berth, joined by members of the Stonington High crew team, which uses our waterfront for practice and meets.
Does it matter who wins this race? Nope.
So what brought these two together this morning?
Well, school’s out in Stonington, but the crew team took advantage of the gorgeous morning for some on-water practice.
The Conrad was returning to her berth after spending the week at Chubb’s Wharf having her lower masts stepped in earlier this week. She’ll maintain just her lowers this season while other maintenance continues. However, she’s a bit more ‘dressed’ now than she was just last week.
All in all, just a typical day here at Mystic Seaport.
