Photographed you guys yesterday as my tour was coming back up the Kennebec. Good sight to see! Let me know if you'd like additional pics of the Virginia!
Huzzah! Great timing for this photo/shot from today's sailing crew member Ken as Jeremy gets off a shot from the swivel gun this morning. Matt caught Virginia just before heading back to the dock from the afternoon sail. We look forward to seeing folks tonight for our panel discussion with some of the volunteers who took part in Virginia's recent adventure to SailBoston and beyond. Join us at the Bath Freight Shed, 27 Commercial Street, at 7pm tonight (July 29) as we see out the Summer Lecture Series. And, yes, Kabayan Philippine Food truck is currently parked right outside (we had some tasty lunch from them earlier). #1607pinnacevirginia #kennebecriver #sailboston #bathtoboston #historyingenuitycommunity Kabayan Philippine Food
TONIGHT! We wrap our Summer Lecture Series with a Panel Discussion featuring some of the MFS Volunteers who took part in our Sail Boston adventure. Come hear their reflections on sailing Virginia south to Boston and then on to Plymouth before returning to Bath via Gloucester and Newburyport. Vessel and crew joined the Parade of Sail with ships from around the globe and over the course of the entire trip welcomed well over 2,000 visitors onboard to learn more about our "pretty pinnace."
7pm, Wednesday, July 29, 2026 at 27 Commercial Street in historic downtown Bath, Maine. Thanks to MFS Volunteer Kelly Cooper for this shot of Virginia taken from aboard Lynx during the SailBoston Parade of Sail on July 11.

You looked so lovely sailing by the Maritime Museum today while I was teaching the campers to forge marlinespikes… we had to stop to watch!
