Bailey Cavender, the new deputy director of the Gray’s Harbor Historical Seaport, spoke to club members about the restoration of the tall ship Lady Washington.  Rotarians learned the original vessel was the first ship to fly the American flag in the Pacific Northwest, information about GHHS and its mission, and about the many challenges involved in operating and maintaining a wooden sailing ship.  Currently work is progressing on preparations for the complex task of repairing and replacing many integral parts of the ship. Because of her condition, the Coast Guard has restricted her operations to coastal and inland waters. Due to a technical issue, attendees were unable to view Bailey's PowerPoint presentation. Click HERE to view the presentation slides provided by Historical Seaport.
