Hi Lance,
I you have a chance, please take some pictures of this
event. I’d love to see them.
By the way, seems like you opened a whole can 'o worms with
the NDZ issue in Boston. Good ole Mumbles, at it again.

On Friday, 24 August and again on 31 August, The USS Constitution will
sail under her own power from her slip in Charlestown to Deer Island
and back. On her way back past Fort Independence, she will fire a 21
gun salute. This will be the last time that the Constitution sails
under her own power until 2010, because she is going into drydock for a
2 year maintenance window.

According to a guy from Constitution Marina, the Constitution, while
remaining tethered to the attending tugs which were in neutral, made
5.5 knots under her own sail power this past friday. Not too shabby,
considering I believe they set two jibs, one square, and the spanker.
