Harwich Harbormaster Tom Leach has accumulated this collection of Lightship photographs to go with a talk that he presents occasionally on these Sentinels. They are long gone Hankerchief removed in 1951 after 97 years of service,then Pollock Rip replaced by an Ocean Buoy in 1969 after 120 years and Stone Horse Lightship (1852-1969) a victim of lack of need due to reduced traffic, superior navigation by LORAN. Nantucket Lightship served 1854-1983 while Cross Rip lasted 1828-1963. Still these legends lasted and saved countless lives. At its peak 60,000 ships past by Pollock Rip Lightship in a single year carrying, food and supplies. The victim of the Cape Cod Canal, the railroad and later the teamster transportation of the trucking industy that made the practicallity of coastal shipping ineffective. Tom has put these pictures to familiar music in a moving tribiute ending with "Semper Paratus", 'alway ready', theme anthem of the Coast Guard. Hundreds of ships came to grief in this period. Ships wrecks many of which can sill be found on the bottom are included in this clip, they are in order: ALVA, EDWARD E BRIERY, WYOMMING, ALICE M LAWRENCE, HORATIO HALL, ARANSAS. FORT MERCER, JENNIE POTTER FRENCH, KATE HARDING, LAKAWANA, SAGAMORE... also shown are the schooner barges which were once a familiar sight and the source of the Monomy Disaster the USLSS greatess tradgety close by the Shovelful Lightship. Lightships were named for the shoal that they designated.

LYRICS!!!Verse 1From a rugged territory to the Oklahoma RunWe've made our dreams come true,just look at what we've doneWe're the Heartland of America,our heart is in the raceWe've sailed our prairie schoonersright into outer spaceWe are young and we are strong,we are comin' with a roarSooner than later we'll be knockin' on your doorSay hello to the future,gonna shake the future's handand build a better worldupon this sacred ancient landChorus 1 We're Oklahoma Risin', brighter than a star Stand up and sing about her let the world know who we are We're the sons and the daughters, children of the West We're Oklahoma Risin', risin' up to be the bestVerse 2Guts and grace and mercy, we have shown them in our turn When the fields had turned to dust and the skies began to burn When the storm shook our souls and the mighty buildings fell Through fires and desperation our faith has served us well I choke back the emotion, I'm an Okie and I'm proud So when you call me Okie, hoss, you better say it loud We look into the heavens at the eagles climbing free It's the spirit of our people on the wing, can you see?Repeat Chorus 2 Twice

http://www.TheBoaters.TV EP 67 - First up: The 114-Foot Luxury Sailing Yacht "Ring Andersen" Goes Up for Bids -- On eBay! As reported by Gregory Richards of "The Virginian-Pilot:" Last Tuesday in Norfolk Virginia, when the Virginia Heritage Foundation put the historical 114-foot vessel "Ring Andersen" up for auction, while it drew a crowd of potential buyers, not one bid was made! The "Ring Andersen" is a boat with history, advanced technology, and luxury. This 114-foot beautiful sailing vessel began life in 1948 as a cargo ship out of Denmark, and in 1962, the Baltic trader ketch became one of the first Caribbean charter yachts. In 1980, she returned to the boatyard for a complete rebuild from hull to mast tip and turned into a world-class luxury charter yacht. So WHY doesn't anyone want her? The ship was recently appraised at 3.2 million dollars and, according to auctioneer William J. Summs, chief executive of Atlantic Asset Management Group Inc., building a new vessel to match the 59-year-old "Ring Andersen" might cost as much as $10 million. Yet, when he opened the bidding at $350,000, no one in the crowd bid. Less than two minutes later, the auction was over. BUT, as of last Friday, there were are at least two potential bidders on eBay: The top bidder, from Annapolis, Md., bid $300,800 (note: there was a $650,000 reserve). The second highest bidder, from Oslo, Norway, bid $100 less than the top bid. The proceeds, which The Virginia Heritage Foundation hopes to receive, will support the foundation's other ship, the "Schooner Virginia," which offers youth sail training and acts as a floating ambassador for the state. For more information about the auction, please visit Atlantic Asset Management's site at http://www.AtlanticRemarketing.com. Next up: The U.S. Navy Redefining What It Means by "Stealth" Ships The U.S. Navy is banking on the release and testing of the 80-foot "M80 Stiletto" to transform how the Navy operates a stealth fleet. With two twin hulls, shaped like an "M", and a breadth of 40 feet, the experimentally-designed ship resembles more of a tank than anything that floats in water. And unlike metal ships, the prototype "Stiletto" is made of carbon fiber and has no radar-evading capabilities. In an age where military vessels are getting narrower to avoid detection, the M80 performs a unique function with its width; the hull can capture and redirect waves, creating a smooth ride even in the most tempestuous conditions. Currently, the "Stiletto" is stationed on the East Coast, and while acknowledged that it might be the only one of its kind ever built, it's encouraging to see the developers looking outside the box for design solutions to current Naval development. For more information on the M80 Stiletto, please visit M Ship Co., the private design firm responsible for the "Stiletto"'s conceptualization, at http://www.MShipCo.com. Finally today: Meet Twiggy the Water-Skiing Squirrel! This world-famous animal novelty act began back in 1979 when Twiggy and her caretakers, Chuck and Lou Ann Best, appeared on the TV show Real People to show off this one-of-a-kind pet trick Based in Deltona, Florida, The Bests found the orphaned squirrel after Hurricane David in 1978, and while raising it as a family pet, learned that she really took to the water--often riding on their shoulders when they took dips in the pool. Chuck and Lou Ann proceeded to teach their squirrel to ski while on river outings. Twiggy is actually several gray squirrels who have been trained in succession to ride on buoyant foam blocks, which are then towed behind a remote-controlled boat in heated pools. The act has been touring for 27 years all across the US, Canada, Bermuda, France, and Germany and has appeared in numerous books, magazines, newspapers, and on television shows all over the world. Visit Twiggy's official website at http://www.SkiingSquirrel.com where you can go to see a schedule of upcoming appearances. Julie's TheBoaters.com Sea-Lebrity Profile Pick of the Day is: Captain Joe Busam and "Shazam," his beautiful 1972 26 Columbia MKII. Congrats, Captain Joe! TheBoaters.TV, hosted by Julie Perry, airs 6-8 minute episodes every M, W, & Friday at http://www.TheBoaters.TV - also available on iTunes. Please subscribe!
