The Deeper We Dug Into This Ship, The Weirder It Got
Lady Hawk is finally home in Canada, but before we can really begin working on her, we first have to uncover her.
What started as a simple clean up quickly turned into something that felt more like archaeology. Every locker, shelf and compartment seemed to hold onto a different chapter of the ship’s life. Spare rigging, sailcloth, tools, ancient fittings, old supplies from Denmark and decades worth of carefully stored equipment, all packed into every possible corner aboard.
In this episode Ben inspects the rig before heading home, Kaleb joins the project, the shop begins its transformation into a proper workspace for Lady Hawk and Thunder Child, and we start the long process of understanding exactly what this ship has been carrying all these years.
This project is slowly becoming very real.
If you’d like to help us bring Lady Hawk back into service as a working sail cargo vessel, consider joining the Founders Circle at marinersspirit.com
Members directly help support the restoration and operation of the ship and eventually will gain access to exclusive merch, events, dispatches, historic artifacts from the vessel and more. Your name will also be engraved aboard Lady Hawk herself.
Thanks for being here. Truly. This project only moves forward because of all of you.
