Alabama Discovery Research Vessel

Those of you who have followed my blog know I have posted photos of several boats made by Chesapeake Boat Builders located in our little town. They build custom boats for companies, theme parks, and individuals all over the world. You just might have one of their boats in your area.

I have threatened to stow away on one of their boats; especially the one that was sailed from Crisfield to its new home in the Virgin Islands. But, pardon the pun, I missed the boat.

The below vessel caught my eye when it was just a shell in their shop.



Today I spied it sitting in the water. It's a research vessel that is going to be sailed from Crisfield to Alabama. Now if I could just figure out the art of 'stowaway.' Any suggestions?



If you don't hear from me for a week, you know where I'll be. Um? I wonder if they will put me out at the next port or be excited about having a photographer aboard?
