The day began with an opportunity to watch the crew climbing the rigging and setting the sails. This was followed by a fascinating talk by Captain John Svendsen showing the numerous restoration projects that have been undertaken to keep the Sea Cloud in tip-top shape. Interested guests had the chance to go down below for a tour of the Sea Cloud’s very unique engine room. After lunch certified photo instructor Linda Burback presented “Photography Basics: Composition +” before we headed ashore for a walking tour of Korcula. One highlight of the day was a traditional Moreska sword dance performed in an open outdoor venue. The clashing of the heavy swords choreographed to music was exhilarating. Guests had the choice to stay ashore for dinner. Back on board the Sea Cloud there was an after-dinner showing of the film Around Cape Horn, featuring original footage shot on a square rigger.
