A Summer of Sailing: A few Notable Experiences

By Luna Mheiri

In this memoir I the author recount my experiences working as a deckhand for a sailing company in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. The book is structured as a series of short stories, each capturing a distinct moment, lesson, or anecdote from a summer spent aboard schooners. The narrative blends practical sailing insights, personal growth, humorous mishaps, and reflections on the sailing lifestyle. I share memories of learning and re-learning sailing skills, adapting to the rhythms of harbor life, and building relationships with captains, relief crew, and guests. The stories are candid, sometimes self-deprecating, and always focused on authentic experience
The document includes numerous photographs taken by me, showcasing the harbor, schooners, sunsets, and scenes from the Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race parade.
