Due to the dense schedule of Quadricentennial Celebration activities during NY400 Week on September 8th-13th, students on this leg of the Voyage of Discovery will produce a single, group scientific presentation rather than tackling several topics for their projects. However, they will still conduct all of our scientific experiments and maintain the ship's Deck Log. We've also reintroduced a learning tool that actually predates the Voyage of Discovery program: the Crew Rating Log. Click on the icons below to view invidual entries.

We use both traditional and modern techniques to better understand the river.

Crewing a sailing ship requires a lot of new skills. Look over our shoulders as we learn how to stand watch, splice rope, and set the main course.

We don't just learn new things... we teach our crewmates what we've learned, too.

The Replica Ship Half Moon Crew Rating Log (Replica Schip Halve Maen Bemanning Rang Log) allows new crew members to track their progress as they learn valuable skills. Click on the book to learn more!
