Spar Sails After Fond Farewell at Bristol Harbor
The Coast Guard Cutter Spar departed Bristol harbor at 3 20 pm Sunday on the first leg of a voyage around the North American continent. A sendoff with speeches, music, and whistles drew hundreds of friends. The ship, part of the Arctic DEW Line resupply effort, will also test a navigable passage across North America en route to Kingston, Jamaica, arriving Saturday.
