I grew up living near to the Mystic Seaport and worked there in my youth. The Seaport influenced my love Of boating and the sea and this year some 50 years later I joined the Mystic Seaport to support and enjoy the facility. I still had the best memiories of sailing on the Brilliant with Biff Bowker and the Clearwater with Pete Seigar on board. I also remember when the Sabino first came to the Seaport and riding on it up river to Noank and back.
