SULTANA PROJECTS DOWNRIGGING WEEKEND OCTOBER 28 - 31, 2010 The harbor and wharfs
of Chestertown will be filled to capacity on the weekend of October 28-
31, 2010 as ships from across
the United States make their way up the Chester River to participate in
the schooner Sultana’s tenth
annual Downrigging Weekend. Established in 2001, Downrigging Weekend
marks the close of the schooner
Sultana’s sailing season and the beginning of Downrigging for many of
the region’s tall ships and traditional
sailing vessels. The weekend will afford the public opportunities to
view, board and sail on the assembled
fleet and to join in celebrating the maritime heritage of the region. The fleet for Downrigging Weekend
2010 is still being assembled but is expected to include: KALMAR NYCKEL - Wilmington,
Delaware PRIDE OF BALTIMORE II - Baltimore,
