It's time to CELEBRATE!   (Please share!)




Please join us on June 9 as we begin a summer of celebrating the return of Ernestina, now Ernestina-Morrissey, to Massachusetts where she started her historic journey in 1894. 
Thirty five years ago the newly independent Republic of Cabo Verde made this AMAZING GIFT, to the "people of the United States".  Since she returned to Massachusetts,  Ernestina-Morrissey  has served as an educational platform and ambassador celebrating the rich maritime history and culture of the Commonwealth.  Help us return her to a SAILING future.
