Clearwater Campaign Against Pollution Sails Seeger Crew
1500 fans packed a Kennebunk monastery grounds concert headlined by Pete Seeger though he spoke softly due to a virus. The 450 pound mainsail yet loomed large as the crew toured the ship Clearwater designed to protest river pollution and raise funds. Captain Allen Aunapu and 12 volunteers push a historic sloop that weighs 94 tons and needs eight to raise its 105 foot mast. The project long planned by Seeger and Toshi aims to educate tens of thousands along the coast about loving rivers again.
