Caught the JWB on her return trip from Portland , Maine . These are follow
up to the shots Mark posted last week .
There was a small crowd watching the ship pass . The daughter of one of
the ship`s crew was telling me that the trip so far
had gone very well with no major problems in transit .

The JWB sails from her home port of Baltimore , Md. (USA) several times
per year , out into the Chesapeake Bay .
You can get tickets , but they are not cheap . However , it is for a good
cause . I believe this is one of the very few former WW II Liberty Ships
still sailing .
