We took the ferry from Friday Harbor to Anacortes, and at 11:00am we met up with longboat Captain Michael and Mate Chrissy from the Northwest Maritime Center and saw a longboat for the first time.

We learned a lot about boat orientation. We learned what port and starboard are. Starboard is the right side and port is the left. We learned about the masts. There is the mizzen mast, the main mast and the foremast.<\/span><\/p>\n

We then fell asleep as the boat rocked gently against the lapping waves.<\/span><\/p>\n
