The Clearwater Sloop has a rich tradition of music on board and in the community. Songs are tools for education. Sea shanties are also sung to break the monotony of labor, and to provide rhythm for tasks requiring group effort, like raising the sail. After a long day of work the crew might also come together to bond and relax with song.
Today we hear from a former Clearwater captain about one of his favorite musical memories.
