On The Hindu

We were thinking about going on a whale watch – Maria said she would love to see a whale – but we came upon the beautiful old schooner Hindu out on Macmillan Pier, they were planning an evening cruise out in the bay, we signed up. I love the water and everything associated with it, I just loved being on that beautiful sailboat as the sun began to set over Herring Cove Beach. The Hindu needs about $250,000 in repairs to the deck, I urged the captain to think about a Kickstarter project. I think he might.

The Hindu has a sweet history, it sailed back and forth to Indian in the spice trade and was commissioned by the U.S. Navy in World War II to hunt for German submarines and engaged one or two.I’ll post more photos during the week, a special trip for me. (Maria is not as crazy about being off-land a I am.)
