ROCKLAND HARBOR — A steady breeze kept the sails full on the schooners and smaller sailboats that showed up for the annual Parade of Sail, July 11, off the Rockland Breakwater. The event showcases the local fleet of windjammers, which circle through the harbor and back out to sea.
Twelve windjammers moved in from across Penobscot Bay, leaving ample space between each other, and proudly heeled along before an appreciative crowd that had gathered on the Rockland Breakwater.
There, Jim Sharp, a former schooner captain who is now the curator of the Sail, Power and Steam Museum in Rockland, emceed the event from his stationary helm at the Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse.
