Speaking of the replica America I was dock boy at the Mystic Seaport in the late 60’s when she came in to spend a few days. The ship was just drop dead gorgeous. I recall the Schaefer’s and crew as most hospitable. As it turns out, while they were here the movie about the ship aired for the first time on network TV. Now this was in the days of tube type TV’s – no cable or such. Rudi went out, purchased a very nice large for its day color TV, had an antenna installed on the mainmast and invited everyone in the marina staying overnight to come on board to watch the show under the stars. Of course Schaefer beer was in abundance. Just a wonderful experience

It was commissioned by Rudi Schaefer of Schaefer Brewing company. Any relation Charles?
