Thanks for stopping by. Here are a few images I captured while I was fortunate to be a passenger on the Maiden Charter Voyage of the Schooner Spirit of Independence. We couldn't have asked for better weather and from what I saw, everyone thoroughly enjoyed the cruise up and down the Elizabeth River. The Captain, J.C. Waters, and the crew, Joy and Peter, ( with help from volunteers ) took pride in showing off the newest attraction on the Portsmouth waterfront. I am looking forward to taking more photos of her whilst underway under full sail. Check out the website for more information on this exquisite vessel.
