Fancy yourself the seafaring type? Here's your chance to see if you've got the goods.

| The Adventuress |
This vessel in this picture was built with the intention of finding a bowhead whale skeleton. Now it's got KSER's Ed Bremer!
Ed is hosting his annual voyage aboard the Adventuress. The Adventuress is a two-masted, gaff-rigged schooner, launched in 1913. Her owner, John
Borden II, of Chicago, commissioned the vessel for his personal use to
embark on an Arctic expedition to collect specimens for the American
Museum of Natural History in New York, with the particular goal of
adding a bowhead whale skeleton to the museum's exhibits. Never got the whale, unfortunately.
Adventuress
came to Seattle in 1952, and today she serves
as the flagship of Sound Experience, a non-profit organization
dedicated to the protection of Puget Sound. And each summer it travels north to Everett and, again this summer, you can join KSER, Ed Bremer and the
Whateverly Brothers for a special evening sailing on May 30th. Ticket info
here.
