    Default Mystic Seaport Museum-Digital Collections

    In my nautical meanderings today I came across some digital collections of interest via the Mystic Seaport Museum.

    Main page is here: http://www.mysticseaport.org/

    Their digital collections include ship and yacht registers, ship plans, oral histories and more. While much of the material is beyond the time frame for Sails of Glory it's still of interest to anyone enamored of the sea and its history.

    Cheers!

    Just spotted this Nautical Almanac from 1804: http://library.mysticseaport.org/ini...82&ChapterId=1

    My wife and I grew up down the road from the Seaport. Went often, it was kinda the start of my love of tall ships.
