July 1984 I was invited to go to the Beaufort Sea, the western arctic by boat, a 65 foot motorsailer belonging to John Bockstoce," Mr. Arctic." A completely new adventure for me, non racing. Such an interesting group, I read everything I could before I joined the boat. I have included photos of ice and whales as it is what one thinks of when speaking of the arctic, I found it to be much more.
The photo of the boat with the grave marker in the foreground, in memory of a whaler from New Bedford.
