July 30

Visitors

The schooner "Mystic Whaler" and the brigantine "Robert C. Seamans" are currently docked at the Maritime Museum.
Since COVID there have been few visiting sailing ships.

On the right is Steam ferry "Berkeley". Built in 1898 by the Union Iron Works of San Francisco, she served after the 1906 earthquake, ferrying refugees across the bay to Oakland.

I remember the Mystic Whaler when I first visited Mystic Ct. in 1958.. Too bad you cannot board the ships.
