As mentioned before, we have student neighbors in building 28. Two of them are making display spars for the Museum in which one side will be cut-away to show the interior bulkheads, guttering, and walls. Pretty neat stuff! I’ll keep you posted with pictures as they progress. In the enclosed picture you’ll note that Ben, a Hendricken Senior who’ll attend Kings Point Maritime Academy next year is applying geometry and algebra. (Also asked him to calculate mast rake- he then started talking cosigns etc so I knew I’d asked the right person!)
