The Godspeed, a Jamestown Settlement ship, has been docked in Old Town for the past few days (unfortunately all of them rainy). According to the brochure we received, the Godspeed is a recreation of one "of the three ships that brought America's first permanent English colonists to Virginia in 1607." It will be sailing back to Jamestown tomorrow morning, and so we won't get a chance to see it in full sail in person (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godspeed_(ship) shows a picture in full sail, the Jamestown Settlement website http://historyisfun.org/Jamestown-Ships.htm does not).
