Gloucester Fisherman Memorial
THEY THAT GO
DOWN TO THE SEA
IN SHIPS
1623 - 1923
Resting on a granite base in the center of Gloucester's long, narrow Stacy Esplanade is the Gloucester Fisherman's Memorial. It is an eight-foot tall, bronze statue of a fisherman dressed in oilskins standing braced at the wheel on the sloping deck of his ship. It is positioned so that the fisherman is looking out over Gloucester Harbor. To permanently memorialize the thousands of fishermen lost at sea in the first three centuries of Gloucester's history. In 1879 alone, 249 fishermen and 29 vessels were lost during a terrible storm.
New to Sailors Cove is a statue of this memorial. It is centered in the entry to the Sailors Cove Marina. Built by Ub Yifu, and commissioned by Drwyndwn Tyne as a gift to the sailors of SL and Sailors Cove. This replica of the real life statue stands in our Marina looking outward. It is a fitting place for such a fine statue and build. Thank You Drw!

We Don't Mean to Frighten You...err...Yes We Do!

This mysterious island magically rose from the waters at Schooner Run and has rightly deserved it's moniker "Haunted Isle". Rumor has it that many who ventured into Nevermore Manor were never to be seen again!
Hmmm. Is it because visitors had such a jolly fright and were simply dying to stay? Or are there darker forces at work here? Are you brave enough to explore the deep dark corners and ghostly recesses? If you are, you better hurry because we have a sinking feeling (pun intended!) that this will be vanishing again soon!
And to celebrate those that have trekked the haunted halls and made it out alive...or at least have enough body parts intact enough to dance, we're throwing a Halloween Monster Mash Bash on the grounds, October 31st from 6-10PM, SLT!
Turn into your favorite ghost or goblin and party til you drop...dead...with DJ Tlinitchief Claymore. Prizes will be given for the best costumes!
