Morgan Whaleboats
During the summer of 2014 the Whaling Ship Charles W. Morgan, first launched in 1841, came to New Bedford, its original home port.
The whaleboats that accompanied the ship, however, were built specifically for the Morgan's 2014 voyage along the New England seacoast. Constructed entirely of wood and fitted almost exactly as the original Morgan whaleboats, were a joy to row, steer and for me, to photograph. (Please visit my Charles W. Morgan images as it came into New Bedford elsewhere on this site, too!)
