That's what I hear. The old wharf is now luxury condos. Well they aren't making any more land there.

It was terrific sailing aboard the Tabor Boy last year at Reunion - first time in 40 years.
The photo insert is of the Tabor Boy in '09. I walked into my office in Bass Harbor, Maine one foggy June morning, looked out my window and behold!!
Hi Jamie! You and I met at reunion last year! Thanks for welcoming me to this great website! I just posted that there are Recycled Tabor Boy Sail Bags for Sale. Let me know if you want one/some: cquirk@taboracademy.org

Many thanks for the warm welcome! Hope all is well with you!
Jamie,
Thank you so much for the comment -- I am honored to be chosen as the XO of the Tabor Boy. I am extremely excited for the upcoming year! Hopefully I will see Capt. Glover and Peter Mello; I would love to meet them. When you come to campus, let me know. Past schooner crew members are always welcome back aboard for a sail even if you cannot come to reunion.
Thank you again!
