MAY 31, 2010 - Going Sailing Gazela will depart for Norfolk late on the night of June 8th, arriving on the morning of the 11th.

MAY 18, 2010 - The Seven Deadly Seas Despite the threat of thunderstorms, The Seven Deadly Seas shows were a great success. The show even attracted the attention of City Paper. Mark your calendars now for an exciting sequel coming September 24-26!

MAY 14, 2010 - Notes from "the Super," Patrick Flynn The third time was the charm for Gazela's rudder, which was finally installed onto the ship on Tuesday. Work is now underway to install the steering gear onto the new rudder. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Last weekend was a busy one, despite the high winds precluding any work aloft. Perhaps the better weather predicted for this weekend will allow us to finish bending on the major sails. Jupiter will be back to the barge this weekend to continue the water heater replacement that was begun last weekend. Gazela's focs'l has been cleaned of lots of miscellaneous belongings, which are now in a Lost & Found area in the hold. Please look through this for any of your stuff before it is sent to a better life elsewhere.
APRIL 20, 2010 - Notes from the President, PSPG Over 90 people attended the Annual Dinner on Moshulu on April 6th, and a grand time was had by all. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of the Gay Burgiel Gazela Volunteer of the Year Award to George Wisser, and the Captain Jim Andersen Jupiter Volunteer of the Year Award to Joe Schuck. The William Wikoff Smith Award was presented to the Delaware River Waterfront Corporation for its "support and encouragement over the years, and its assistance in preserving the historic vessels Gazela and Jupiter."
Naomi Kaminsky spoke about "The Volunteer Project", and has collected about a dozen stories so far. Check it out and then add your own. Mary Smith told the crowd how proud she was of their efforts to keep Gazela sailing, and surprised everyone by saying she wanted to help Gazela sail to Portugal for a triumphant return visit. |
