It was 29 years ago that the 97 foot Schooner built in Thomaston Maine...the first of its kind built in 40 years , sank on its maiden and final voyage
see articles ..is definitely of interest the water fans http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,948575-1,00.html http://www.firstaero.org/johnleavittrescue.htm
I had the pleasure to meet the film maker Jon Craig Cloutier who documented Ned Ackermans project from start to finish. A small local film was made about this I believe is was called Coaster the Journey of the Jonathan F Leavitt...but i can not find a record of this film in http://imdb.com but I saw the film at its unveiling at Portland Maine City Hall in 1981
