This town is said to be the oldest art colony in the country with art galleries, shops and restaurants which fill the small converted fishing shacks. Continuing on to Gloucester, a stop is made at the famous statue commemorating the death of the Gloucester fishermen who went down with their ships. The movie, "A Perfect Storm", was based on these fishermen and was filmed in this area. This afternoon, step aboard the beautiful 49 passenger Essex built schooner Thomas E. Lannon for a two-hour sail around Gloucester's scenic harbor and coastline. Help the crew members raise the sails, or just sit back and relax taking in all the magnificent scenery!
