Yesterday, the Charles W. Morgan set sail for the first time in almost a century.  The whaling ship built in 1841 has been extensively rebuilt at Mystic Seaport Museum and successfully completed its first day of sea trials in Long Island Sound off New London. Sea trials are continuing today and on June 11, and 12.
