Part of the crowd at the launching of the schooner HERITAGE. At the photo's center is John Foss at the yawlboat's tiller, with Doug and Linda Lee's two girls, Rachel and Clara, sitting up forward. Launched on April 16, 1983, the schooner HERITAGE was a celebrity from the get-go, her first sail cheered on by thousands of onlookers and documented by national media. As of 2021, she remains on the water as a beloved Maine windjammer. (Anne Bray photo).
