Speaker Series—The Golden Age of Sail

Step back into the 19th century as Frank Cebula, a seasoned crew member of the Kalmar Nyckel, brings to life the bustling Lewes breakwater—a harbor that once teemed with fifty or sixty wooden ships, waiting to make their way up the bay to Philadelphia. Discover the maritime trades of Lewes, the history of the harbor, and the weather that shaped life on the Delaware Bay.
