Red Cat Jenny Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Oh wow! I saw this from the tower! Out in the channel to NY harbor. I thought I was hallucinating when I saw a 3 masted ship. I think it was that one. Huh Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matusalem Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 I thought I was hallucinating when I saw a 3 masted ship. I think it was that one. Huh There's a distinct possibility that what you saw could *possibly*be the Royaliste, maybe....maybe not. She's about to make fer these waters about now.

the Royaliste Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Hmm, lemmeee see...not Godspeed, not Royaliste, so it'd take a lot more information for me to identify the ship. I do try and keep a handle on where other ships are, but we all sail thru NYC, as well as other cities unannounced.( heck, we WILL be near there in a week or so)..Royaliste was downrigged yesterday to transit the Oswego/ Erie Canals enroute to the Hudson. If you care to visit or stop aboard, and you are physically fit and able to do so, then best keep an eye peeled, as I lose internet capabilities today for a while. And frankly, internet posting has caused us grief both ways, so we are back to the 'wake up and see the sunshine' side of the real world for a spell. 4 days to the Hudson, barring dirty weather, where we will restep masts and rig -in for a day at Castleton-on-the-Hudson, and three to Sandy Hook. 3 to 5 more until Norfolk (we are pushing her fairly hard). 4 more thru the Low Country swamps, and 'presto!" back in Beaufort for a short time. That's pretty much the fall lineup, before filming and a haulout for still more repairs from last January's incident..Fair Winds and a Following Sea to all....
