The schooner was used in the 1977 production of Captain Courageous, a movie based on Rudyard Kipling s novel about Gloucestermen. Future plans also call for refurbishment of the pier and harbor area where she s berthed. The nearby shipyard is the oldest continuously worked shipyard in America, according to Krugman. With some improvements the entire Harbor Loop area near Adventure s berth can become a living museum, he says. The city, still a commercial fishing port, has been striving to revamp the waterfront without losing touch with its maritime heritage.
Adventure is a good link.
