The High Seas Sunday Post
Hey,
I’m making this short since I just cruised in from Catalina Island on the tall ship Irving Johnson. It was a bucket list endeavor. Irving Johnson started this training endeavor in the ‘50s building tall ships all over the world to train kids in the old tough ways of sailing the seven seas. I remember the Wind Jammer adventures as a kid.
There was a permanent captain on board, John, three permanent crewmembers, and four or five volunteers, who are generally college kids who take breaks from college to train on a tall ship. It’s a growing industry. There is nothing more beautiful than a tall ship on the open ocean. I’ll never forget this effort that was put together by Woody, who is the boss of Adventure Voyager. He also ran the Cruising convention on Catalina Island this weekend.
