Souls on Board

The morning started off bright and early. C watch was supposed to have watch from 01:00am-7:00am, however, because we decided to anchor for the night, the previous watch/crew let us sleep in till 5:30am. After wake up, C watch got the SSV Corwith Cramer off anchor. We got to watch a beautiful sunrise over Gloucester harbor.  After traveling many miles up the coast, we’ve made it further enough that there is nothing but ocean and wildlife surrounding us.  I look forward to traveling up and down the coast, and seeing all the wildlife in their natural habitat.
