ot sure if there is any type of interest in these type of boats here ...but today was the 4th of July and the 300th year aniver. of my City. To celebrate our city had tall ships come in from all over the world, like they did in 76 and 86 in New York. The Eagle was there along with many other nice boats. If interested here is the link: http://fletch.bml.usouthal.edu/tallships/ Sorry , they are raw, no thumbnails Happy 4th, Fletc

Wasn't it great!! I rode out 3 times in my Whaler to see them, the Eagle had one of the largest Old Glory's flying I have ever seen. Got some great pics too. Tully Mars

We went out of Dog River and saw them too. Awesome! For those who are wondering-the city is Mobile. |

As many of us as there are in the Mobile area, there ought to be a gathering, even if it's informal.I own an '84 Montauk with a '93 Rude 88SPL. |
