Code Flag Lima Project No. 17: Herreshoff Content for the Quarantined! Welcome to CFLP17! Today we answer the long anticipated question: what was going on at HMCo. during the 1918 Flu pandemic? Curator Emeritus John Palmieri tells us all about it in our latest Curator's Log! We're also giving you a chance to try out color schemes on your own (paper) 12½ and watch a lecture about another home-town favorite one-design class, the S-Boat. If you'd rather escape home, we've got another virtual voyage experience, this time from our friends at the Penobscot Marine Museum. As always, please send us your feedback, thoughts, ideas, etc. You can reach us at lima@herreshoff.org. You can also upload photos of your #HerrshoffFromHome projects on our Facebook page or connect with us on Instagram @herreshoff. We’re looking forward to hearing from you, as always! During these crazy times, the Museum really needs your support. We've challenged ourselves to grow our membership with new digital initiatives like this that can bring the museum to our community, so please help us achieve that goal by taking a minute to renew, join or donate now.
