Sunday Boat Stories: The Nomad Sailing Canoe 🛶 Created in 1887 by master builder J. Henry Rushton, the Nomad represents the peak of sailing canoe design. This one, purchased in 1910 for $175, was part of a pair carried aboard Joseph Van Vleck's yacht for his sons to sail. Adaptable for paddling or sailing, it was used strictly under sail—a graceful blend of elegance and adventure. . . . . . #SundayBoatStories #MysticSeaportMuseum #WoodenBoats #CanoeSailing #SailingHistory #AmericanWatercraftCol

The journey last week was part of a pre-voyage trek called the “heritage sail,” leading up to an official launch next month where the canoe will voyage around the Pacific for four years. #HNN | Hawaii News Now | Facebook
