The Artful Sailor Whole Earth Nautical Supply & Sail Exchange410 Washington Street (By the Skate Park)Port Townsend, WA, 98368United States
In the annals of nautical heroism and conviction what can possibly rival the 1958 attempt of four tough, able and dedicated pacifists to sail the Golden Rule, a 34’ wooden ketch, into the grounds of imminent, nuclear bomb tests at Eniwetok, in the Marshall Islands? The crew’s story, trials and courage evokes awe, compassion and respect for peacemaking under sail as well as a deeper understanding of nuclear proliferation and warfare. This coming Summer and Fall, the Golden Rule, still plying the waters for peace, will be sailing the Salish Sea again.
In the warmth and safety of The Artful Sailor’s sail loft, experience the Golden Rule’s passionate past voyages, restoration, present and future voyages through the eyes and imagery of Veterans For Peace presenter and Golden Rule crew member, Zoe Byrd. The Sea Tales on a Winter’s Eve event will be on Sunday, February 18, 2024 at 6:00 pm. A $20 donation is encouraged. Proceeds will go to The Veterans for Peace Golden Rule Project where the primary goal is to promote nuclear disarmament and peace.
