I’ve been working on an update on the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes, but I saw a meme of the photo above and felt we could all use some good news about humans helping humans.
Basically, a small sailboat lost its rudder and called for distress. Naturally, the closest ship came to their aid. It just happened to be a 788-ton 1:1 replica of an 18th century sailing vessel: the Götheborg.
Looking for more information than provided by the meme gave me this account from the sailing vessel in question and I can’t help but smile. There’s bringing history alive and then there’s this.
