Lost at Sea for Seven Days

Join the Founders Circle and become part of the story at: www.MarinerSpirit.com Two stories. One ship. Sixty years of memories that don’t quite agree. In this episode, we follow the strange history of Lady Hawk, once the Danish fishing cutter Tourup, E.502, and a North Sea disaster that may have changed her forever. One story says she capsized in 1964, losing her wheelhouse and part of her deck. Another places a remarkably similar event years later. Both say she disappeared for seven days. As we reef the decks, forge new tools and dig deeper into her stern, the physical evidence starts raising even more questions. Missing structure, moved frames and decades of distortion seem to point toward a major rebuild in her past. But human memory is a strange thing. The more we remember a story, the more we can unknowingly change it. Somewhere between the stories handed down through generations, the scars hidden beneath Lady Hawk’s covering boards, and the bottom of the North Sea… is what actually happened. And whatever happened then, we’re dealing with the consequences now. Lady Hawk’s restoration continues, and the Barefoot Raid is getting very close. If you want to help us restore this historic ship, get her back to sea, and ultimately sail her to Mexico to bring our first cargo home under sail, consider joining the Mariner’s Spirit Founders Circle. Thanks for watching, and thanks for helping us keep old ships, and their stories alive.
